Calling All Artists!

If you’ve ever come into The Reading Room Cafe to have a cup of coffee, or maybe a bowl of soup, you might have noticed the great art hanging on our walls! We love to showcase local artists and help them sell their works.

Currently, we are showcasing the amazing work of E. Dennison. After a trip to Cuba, she has come back with some great photos depicting the Cuban lifestyle.

We are also always on the lookout for new artists, and will be ready for a new showcase in October. If you would like to see your art here, please contact us at readingroom@shaw.ca

Calling All Sooke Artists…

Wall space is available in the Reading Room Cafe. Give Kathe a buzz for further details.

This is an excellent way for you to reach out to your community and gain exposure for your work.

Winter is coming and people will be heading indoors to languish over aromatic coffees and tempting baked goods…give them something beautiful to behold as well, and you never know what they might go home with .

Photos Flying Off The Wall: Jason van der Valk Rocks the Cafe

Long Dock~ Saturna Island

When you take a look at the framed photographs currently gracing the walls in the Reading Room Cafe in Sooke, you’ll understand quickly and have no doubt why 3 of these stunning and haunting prints were sold this week!

The Collection presented by local Sooke resident Jason van der Valk is nothing less than stunning.

The featured photos capture the essence of all that is cherished by British Columbia’s residents and visitors alike. Shot in places like Saturna Island, Sidney, Tofino and Metchosin, van der Valk’s eye for the Island is a unique and intelligent one indeed.

Make the trip to Sooke, stop in at the Reading Room Cafe, view the collection and take something home before this talent is truly discovered and we normal folk won’t be able to afford his work any longer
