Squamish library to showcase Alain Gorgien’s art and life

The Squamish Public Library’s Foyer Gallery is presenting ‘Steward of the Forest: The Art and Life of Alain Gorgien’, from November 19th-January 30th.

As 2022 draws to a close in less than two months, a spotlight will be focused on the artistic works, accomplishments, community impacts, and interests of Alain Gorgien, beloved long-time Squamish resident who passed away suddenly last January.

The Opening Reception will be held on November 19th (Alain’s Birthday) from 11-2pm.

Friends, family, and the community are invited to gather together and witness what Alain was creating at his forest home in Paradise Valley for over 30 years, while snuggled up with his woodstove, baking, planting, tending, creating, painting, sculpting clay, slicing metal plates, setting gemstones in copper and writing love notes…

Come to hear stories and learn more about the intention and focus of Alain’s art and his unique personality, as you enjoy some music and lemon tarts, witnessing his spectacular and creative art pieces filled with wonder and enchantment.

Join us to pay your respects as we shine a light on the accomplishments of our dearly departed Alain, who died on January 16th, 2022.
