The Ryga Arts Festival is a vibrant celebration of the arts in the spectacular Okanagan Valley of British Columbia. Inspired by George Ryga.
The festival features theatre, music and spoken word events, as well as workshops and a symposium. All of which commemorate Summerland resident, George Ryga (1932-1987), and because George was the son of Ukrainian immigrants, this year’s festival focuses on the crisis in Ukraine, the resilience of the Ukrainian people and celebrates Ukrainian Canadian heritage.
Tickets can be purchased online and the entire festival schedule of events can be viewed on the Ryga Arts Festival website.
Make sure you catch the exciting Salute to Ukraine event here at Summerland Waterfront Resort & Spa. This lively production will have a mix of music, dance, stories and poetry. It will take place on Thursday, September 20 (day one) at 7:00 pm.
Tickets are by donation and all proceeds will go to the Ukrainian Nightingale Project.
