PurchaserBԪַs Preview Night, which is held annually the night before the art show begins, will be held virtually this year.

Those who wish to join in on Purchasers Preview Night can buy a special access code and have the first tour through this yearBԪַs online gallery.

BԪַThis exclusive evening allows early access to view and buy extraordinary artworks from Vancouver Island and B.C.BԪַs coastal island artists ahead of the thousands of attendees who gain access the next day,BԪַ said organizers of the Sooke Fine Art Show in a press release.

A wide range of categories will be featured in the show, including more than 375 juried works of paintings, drawings, sculptures, photography, fibre arts, jewelry, glass, and ceramics in a virtual format.

Terrie Moore, executive director of the Sooke Fine Arts Society, said organizers worked hard to reflect the same feel of the in-person art show as much as possible.
