The sheer variety of Penticton beauty, from art and wine to craft beer and culinary creations, will be on display as the Palette of Penticton brings those worlds together in one place.
The event hosted by the Rotary Club of Penticton features six wineries, six restaurants, two craft breweries, two distilleries and the work of various local artists.
“(Palette of Penticton) brings everything together and gives people something to do in January because there’s not much that goes on in this town in January,” said Barb Hoolaeff, president of Penticton Rotary.
It all comes together on Jan. 21, starting at 7 p.m. in the South Main Drop-in Centre, 2965 South Main. St.
