RCA@Home Social Clubs It's like a book club for arts and culture!
At the RCA, we continue to support our vision to be the heart of Kelowna’s arts and culture experience. During this period, we’re staying connected with our community by creating online opportunities to share and discuss what we love – theatre, music, art and film.
Join an RCA@Home Social Club!
The RCA@Home Social Clubs are open to anyone to join in the conversation. It’s like joining a rad book club, but for arts and culture!
Each Club covers a different area of interest, with a host to moderate up to 12 participants. A topic, performance, or recommendation will be selected every week and members will watch/listen in their own time before meeting with the rest of the group for a discussion.

DOCUMENTARY FILMS with Trophy Ewila
Trophy Ewila is a Program Coordinator at RCA and a story enthusiast with a recent interest in film and filmmaking.
A good story makes you forget the idea of yourself. It can also reintroduce an idea of who you could be. This is a power of film and it must be explored." Join Trophy in exploring the stories and storytellers that have shaped culture. ‘Our lives are just another story. We are stories.'
I would like to encourage all members to make suggestions of what films to explore and look forward to having local filmmakers share insight into the art of filmmaking.

ART TALKS
RCA@Home already offers the following: a Virtual Cinema House screening rentable fresh documentaries weekly, weekly free social clubs on various topics in film, theatre and music, and online education workshops for youth and adults. To this line-up we are adding monthly Art Talks, an opportunity for artists and art leaders to have a conversation with the Kelowna community. Interested community members can sign up for free.
Talks would be set up on Zoom for two-way engagement. We request RSVPs in advance and three days before the event.
What’s Zoom?
Zoom is a cloud-based video conferencing service you can use to virtually meet with others. Meetings are conducted via video, audio-only or both, and also include live chats and messaging. You can join in on your computer or through the app.
Don’t forget to invite your friends and meet great new people who love the arts!
