Caetani Centre Launches 2026 Winter–Spring Creating Space Programming and Events

Get ready to explore creativity, community, and personal expression in a meaningful setting.
VERNON, BC – The Caetani Cultural Centre invites community members of all ages to explore
creativity, reflection, and expression through a dynamic lineup of exhibitions, events, and
workshops this winter and spring. Programming runs from January through June 2026 at the
Caetani Cultural Centre in Vernon, BC, offering opportunities to engage with visual art, writing,
poetry, and theatre in an inspiring heritage setting.

“Creating Space is about offering people time, tools, and a welcoming place to explore their
inner and creative lives,” says Laisha Rosnau, Executive Director of the Caetani Cultural Centre.
“This winter and spring, we’re excited to bring artists and community members together in
ways that honour Sveva Caetani’s legacy while nurturing curiosity, connection, and creativity.”

The season begins with Inner Thread, an immersive installation by Okanagan-based artist Suzy
King, on view in the Caetani Gallery from January 20 to February 7. Richly textured and
hands-on, the installation draws on fibre, colour, and sensory experience to invite visitors to
slow down and explore quiet connections between body, material, and inner life.

An opening reception will be held January 24 from 2–6 pm, inviting guests to dress in black,
white, or warm tones ranging from orange to terracotta, coral, or ochre. Beverages will be
available by cash donation, with snacks provided.

On January 31 at 2 pm, King will also present an artist talk and Q&A titled “Becoming an
Installation Artist.”

Gallery hours during the exhibition are Tuesday to Friday, 10 am–4 pm, and Saturday, 1–4 pm.
The exhibition is open to all ages and admission is by donation.
