"Arts Clubs Active - B.C. Society of Fine Arts"
From "Artists And Their Doings", Western Woman's Weekly - September 18, 1920
B.C. Society of Fine Arts
The continued vitality of the B.C. Society of Fine Arts
will be again demonstrated this year by the exhibition in the upper rooms of the
School Board Offices on Hamilton Street. The private
view is this afternoon, and the show will be
open free to the public during the week, September 20-25. There was a doubt in the minds of
some of the members that this year their annual event would be somewhat overshadowed by the
artistic activities in connection with the Hastings Park and
Westminster Exhibitions.
But a privileged peep at some of the works that will be on view, enables us to say that a
visit to the rooms will be much enjoyed by all lovers of art. Both in oils and water colors
the Society shows a considerable advance, and there are also some delightfully clever pastel
portraits. Without specializing on particular names it may be said that the well-known
leaders of the group are well up to standard, while there has been a considerable accession
of outside contributions of merit.
