Sue Foley brings blues guitar magic to sa国际传媒 tonight! What a year it’s been for Sue Foley. Fresh from her induction into the Maple Blues Hall of Fame and riding high on a 2025 Grammy nomination, the guitar virtuoso and female “hurricane” (to quote one of her own song titles) now adds a Juno nod to her impressive collection of accolades. Her latest acoustic masterpiece, One Guitar Woman, isn’t just another album – it’s a love letter to the female pioneers of guitar. Using just one nylon-string flamenco Blanca, hand-picked in Mexico, Foley breathes new life into the legacy of legends like Memphis Minnie and Sister Rosetta Tharpe. The album has dominated the Roots Music Canada Charts for 14 straight weeks, proving that sometimes less truly is more. Presented by Creative Okanagan, catch this six-string sensation tonight, March 12, at sa国际传媒’s Metro Hub . Regular tickets are $50, while $75 VIP packages include a pre-show meet-and-greet at 6:30 p.m., plus exclusive merch. Grab your tickets at – guitar enthusiasts won’t want to miss watching history in the making.

Pinch me, I’m dreaming: Squeeze is coming to sa国际传媒! Holy smokes, fellow music lovers – this is not a drill! The legendary Squeeze is bringing their 50th anniversary tour to our very own sa国际传媒 Community Theatre on March 17, and I’m practically bouncing off the walls with excitement! If you’ve ever hummed along to “Tempted” or found yourself dancing to “Cool for Cats,” you know exactly why this is such a big deal. These British rock legends, led by the incomparable songwriting duo of Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook, are making their final Canadian stop right here in our hometown before heading back to the UK. From their punchy New Wave classics to their recent vibrant comebacks, Squeeze has spent five decades crafting some of the smartest, catchiest pop tunes ever written. And now they’re bringing that magic to Water Street! I can’t even walk yet, but I bought my tickets to sit at the back of the theatre so I can just breathe in the glory of this greatness! Tickets range from $63 to $582.87 for the ultimate VIP experience. Trust me, you don’t want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime show. Grab yours at the box office, call 250-469-8940, or visit See you there – I’ll be the one grinning from ear to ear!

As spring whispers through the valley, there’s no better time to lace up your walking shoes and explore the artistic treasures of the Okanagan. After my recent car accident, I need to set a goal for myself to get physically stronger and art galleries make perfect “rest stops” on the journey back to mobility – beautiful destinations where healing meets inspiration. In sa国际传媒’s Cultural District, wonderland beckons with 21 pieces of public art dotting the streets.(Visit to find an interactive map) The sa国际传媒 Art Galleries “Her Land Perspectives in Eco-Art” exhibition provides a perfect excuse to venture downtown, while the Rotary Centre for the Arts, Gallery 421, and SOPA Fine Arts offer strategic stopping points to catch your breath and feed your soul. In Penticton, the smaller but mighty art scene packs its own walkable punch. The Penticton Art Gallery’s “stim̓aspuʔus: What is on your heart?” The exhibition feels particularly poignant as I rebuild my strength. The Lloyd Gallery and Tumbleweed Gallery create a perfect art-walking circuit, and the upcoming Ignite the Arts Festival (March 27-30) gives us all something to stride toward. Medical research shows that walking improves bone healing through better blood flow and compression – but I’ve found it’s the destination that keeps me motivated, so whether you’re healing like me or just shaking off winter’s stillness, our galleries offer the perfect blend of culture and gentle exercise. One masterpiece at a time, we keep moving forward.
