Sooke Fine Arts Show

Prepare to be dazzled by a vibrant celebration of creativity, featuring works from over 270 coastal artists, 48 of them new to the show, alongside several youth artists who have graduated from our Youth Art program. From captivating paintings to intricate sculptures, stunning photography, fibre works, jewellery and beyond, the exhibition promises something to captivate every imagination.

According to Terrie Moore, Executive Director of the Sooke Fine Arts Society, “The energy in our local arts community is electric. Building on last year’s success, we’re thrilled to unveil an even more extraordinary event, showcasing the very best our region has to offer.”

But it’s not just about the art – it’s an immersive experience. Live music sets the mood, while artist demos and engaging lectures add depth to your visit. Families and seniors alike are treated to special days filled with tea, scones, and the joy of discovering new talents.

Behind this extravaganza are over 300 dedicated volunteers, embodying the very spirit that gave rise to the Sooke Fine Arts Show in 1986. Executive Director Moore sums it up: “Our volunteers are the best! They span all ages, from 8 to their 80’s, and it’s their dedication that makes hosting this show possible. We could not do this without them.”
