OBS

Operating since 1977 in the rural and historically rich area of Wells/Barkerville/Bowron Lakes in the central interior of British Columbia, Island Mountain Arts has attracted world-class and emerging artists to Wells ... to educate, perform, study and exhibit in a wide range of artistic mediums. Providing access to arts education and experiences in a region where few other opportunities exist, Island Mountain Arts is a leader in the north and has created numerous arts and culture spin offs throughout the area, including encouraging the growth and development of artists and artistic practice in the north and drawing professional artists to Wells to build their studios, thus creating an artistic community in a place previously only known for mining and logging.

OBS

Island Mountain Arts serves artists and stimulates and enhances artistic, cultural and economic development by striving for excellence in the arts through workshops, seminars, exhibitions and the ArtsWells Festival.
