Oliver Creates – A Collaborative Art Show & Sale is presented by the Oliver Community Arts Council. The OCAC is a not-for-profit, charitable organization run entirely by volunteers whose mandate is to promote all the arts in the community. Please consider becoming a member.

With support from Oliver Tourism, local wineries, and a growing list of community partners, Oliver Creates promises to be a vibrant, welcoming event that brings together locals, visitors, and artists alike in a shared celebration of the arts.

Oliver Creates, formerly known as the Fall Art Show & Sale, has a new home at the Oliver Curling Centre. The OCAC is now able to be open from Friday to Sunday, and open to the public for the duration of the Wine Capital Weekend festival. Previously, the show had limited access to the public. This change started in 2025 and will continue again in the future.

We are actively updating event details, artist registration forms, and important deadlines—so check the website regularly or reach out directly.

“This show has always been about showcasing the incredible artistic spirit of our town and region,” says the the Oliver Community Arts Council Board of Directors. “With this rebrand, we’re keeping everything that made the Fall Art Show & Sale special and expanding it to become even more inclusive, collaborative, and exciting.”

Save the dates! September 19th to 21st, 2026.
