Mas Matsushita and Ron Nixon were two of the artists who helped lay brand-new flooring at the Revelstoke Art Gallery. The Visual Arts Society raised $4,700 to purchase the flooring for the main gallery as well as the three smaller side galleries. Gallery Director Jackie Pendergast said Revelstoke Flooring gave the society a very sweet deal (Thanks for that!). The composite flooring replaces the dull, frayed and grungy-looking wall-to-wall that had previously carpeted the floors. “The gallery looks amazing thanks to a fantastic group of volunteers led by ‘The Boss’ Ken Talbot.,” Jackie said in an e-mail she sent to society members and patrons. “Come down to the Gallery this Friday night July 12 and celebrate the new gallery floor as well as see the Summer Art Fair and Drawing Exhibitions. Doors open at 6.00pm. Admission by donation.” David F. Rooney photo
