The City of White Rock is proud to support local artists through the POP-UPTOWN PROGRAM. The intent of the art gallery is to facilitate and inspire new artistic and creative enterprises in White Rock. Pop-Uptown allows artists to occupy the art gallery and share their talents with the community.
The Landmark Pop-Uptown Gallery is located at 15140 North Bluff Rd.
The White Rock Museum & Archives is proud to present MOROSAN: THE MAN WHO PAINTED WHITE ROCK. The exhibit will be shown in our galleries until May 21, 2023. Vojislav (Voja) Morosan painted with a high key palette and a realistic style filled with optimism. In his work the buildings look new, the streets are clean, and the sun always shines. His fine eye for detail, light, and colour and his commitment to historic accuracy can be seen in all his streetscapes. This retrospective exhibit features works from the 1970s until Morosan’s death in 2008.
The WHITE ROCK BUSKERS & COMEDY FESTIVAL - running May 25-28 2023 - offers free busking performances during the day and ticketed comedy shows from Canada’s top comedians at night.
