Starlee Speers - Vernon 105.7 SUN FM:
The Gallery Vertigo in Vernon is hoping the city will provide ongoing funding for basic operating costs. After hearing from a delegation from the Gallery, Mayor Wayne Lippert said the artist-run centre is a significant part of the community, but says he'd like more information as to how much the gallery contributes to the local economy. The North Okanagan Artists Alternative told council Monday they can't achieve their full potential without securing funding from the local level.The Gallery is requesting fifteen thousand dollars for 2009.
