There is a new business coming to Canal Flats! We are Kootenay Kool Studio & Gallery Inc., a commercial art studio combined with a public art gallery. We will be offering a secure location for artists to show and consign their creations as well as providing lessons and classes, for all ages, in a wide range of artistic mediums. Everyone knows that we have very talented painters in the area but there are also fabulous fabric artists, wonderful woodworkers, gifted glass-blowers and surreal ceramicists! OK, seriously now, we have Native artists, goldsmiths, metal sculptors and furniture makers... in short, a lot of cool people doing cool things right here in Canal Flats, the coolest corner of the Kootenay's! If YOU happen to be doing something cool and you are ready to share it with the world, we want to talk to you! Our location on the highway (9115 Grainger Rd.) will be open this summer but in the meantime, come check out our sensational line of clothing at Kootenay Kool Wearables. We are at the 4-way stop (Burns and Grainger) on the ground floor at Steve's Place. You can email us at [email protected] Kevan and Joi Leycraft Artists in Residence
