Salmon Arm Arts Centre

Salmon Arm Arts Centre Art Gallery and Arts Centre in downtown Salmon Arm, operated by Shuswap District Arts Council. The beautiful gallery is known throughout Western Canada.

Salmon Arm Arts Centre is a heritage brick building in downtown Salmon Arm. Built in 1937 as Salmon Arm's first post office, it has been a public library, and since 1994, the Arts Centre. With its Palladian windows and original maple hardwood floors, we enjoy a stunning atmosphere with which to hold exhibitions and community events.

Join us Saturday, September 12th at 11:00 AM at the Salmon Arm Art Gallery for the opening of Where In The World Are We?, an exhibition that invites us to see mapping in a whole new way.

Created collaboratively over time, these maps trace stories, relationships, memories, and rhythms, offering different perspectives on the place we call home.

Presented by Runaway Moon Theatre in collaboration with Shuswap Immigrant Services and the Salmon Arm Arts Centre, this exhibition is part of a long term community project exploring the many ways we connect to and understand our community.

Our WOW crew deserves a BIG shoutout! 🧡🎶

From the incredible tech crew Marcus Smith to our onsite team and everyone behind the scenes, you showed up week after week, in the heat, the smoke, the wind (and everything in between 😅), and made sure the concerts happened.

We introduced some new things this year, tried out new ideas, and definitely changed things up and it was so awesome to watch our team embrace the changes, roll with it, and push through together.🧡

And honestly, some of the best parts of WOW happen when the audience isn’t looking, at the laughs, the hustle, the inside jokes, the random moments, the snacks, the problem solving, and all the little memories we’ll be talking about for a long time🫶🏽

So many good vibes, so many good memories, and one seriously awesome team.

We truly, literally, absolutely could not do it without you. 🧡

Thank you, WOW crew, for another amazing season!🎶

And just like that, another summer on the wharf comes to an end🧡🎶

To our incredible artists, our amazing WOW team, our wonderful sponsors, and everyone who joined us week after week, thank you for making this summer so special.

We’re going to miss seeing all of your smiling faces on the wharf, but we’re already looking forward to next year and another summer filled with great music, good company, and memories made together.

Until then, thank you for being part of Wednesday on the Wharf. We’ll see you next summer! 🥹🧡🎶

Congratulations, Blanche! You’re the winner of this artwork by Myrna Button! Myrna kindly donated this piece to raffle off, with funds going towards the planned drought-tolerant public demonstration garden on the grounds outside the Salmon Arm Arts Centre.

This multi year project is in partnership with the Shuswap Climate Action Society, showcasing beautiful outdoor designs that are easy on care and resources! We’d say that’s a win-win-win. Let us know if you’d like to help out or donate!

What a beautiful way to end our 2026 Wednesday on the Wharf season. 🧡☀️🎶

We had a wonderful evening on the waterfront as the Sage Hill Singers and community performers came together to share music, culture, and celebration with our community. There was such a special energy at the wharf as everyone gathered, connected, and enjoyed the evening together.

We were also so grateful to Rise Up Indigenous for sharing a community meal with the everyone. Vendors joined us with their beautiful items and set up their tents along the wharf, adding even more to the sense of community and celebration.

What a truly meaningful way to wrap up another summer of Wednesdays on the Wharf. From the first Wednesday to our final evening, we’re so grateful for everyone who showed up, danced, listened, laughed, supported local artists and and made the wharf feel like a place for everyone to gather.

A heartfelt thank you to this week’s sponsor, Johnson Meier Insurance Agencies Group, for supporting our community and helping make evenings like this possible. We’re so grateful for your support!

And, of course, a huge thank you to everyone who joined us throughout the 2026 WOW season. You made this summer so special, and we couldn’t have done it without you. 🎶☀️

Until next summer, Salmon Arm!🧡

Tomorrow, we’re celebrating music, culture, and community on the waterfront with a special Mini Pow Wow! 🪶🎶🧡 Join us for an evening of singing, drumming, dancing, and celebration as we welcome the Sage Hill Singers to the Wednesday on the Wharf stage.

A great show takes more than what happens on stage. 🎶🧡

Behind every performance are the artists, our incredible WOW team, and the people who help keep everyone fueled throughout the day. We’re so grateful to Hungry Panda for sponsoring all the food for our artists and team this summer!

From the first bite to the final encore, thank you for helping us take care of the people who make Wednesday on the Wharf happen. 🥡🎶
