Pynelogs Cultural Center Events
|
|
|
CV Arts completed the restoration of the historic Pynelogs Cultural Centre in Invermere in 2005. This community legacy now operates throughout the year, grandly serving as an art gallery, gift shop, workshop, and concert, convention, entertainment and private function venue for all to enjoy.
The Dream Continues…
…to build a Performing Arts Centre adjacent to the historic Pynelogs Cultural Centre.
This gathering place for the arts will be a permanent home for our new Steinway piano and provide a venue for a myriad of activities, including musical concerts, dance reviews, plays (particularly a summer music and theatre program), adult and children’s workshops and much more.
This vision now is closer to becoming a reality, and its very existence will ensure that the Windermere Valley becomes a primary centre of the arts, enhancing the lifestyle of all those who chose to live and visit this fantastic community.

June / July / August ... Canfor Woodland Tours
|
|
Mill and active logging tours June to August.
The best way to learn about forests and forestry is to actually get out in the bush and explore! To go on a tour with an expert like a forester is great because you can see, smell and touch the soil and plants ... and you can ask questions. Lots of questions!
These tours are free and there are limited seatings.
