Riot on the Roof is a night of alternative art aimed at engaging young people aged 16 to 25 in the arts and cultural sector in our community. The event is celebrating its 14th year and will take place on top of the Downtown Vernon Parkade at 7pm on Saturday August 27th. Tickets are available for purchase at the Vernon Public Art Gallery, our website www.vernonpublicartgallery.com, or at the door.
Riot on the Roof brings together an array of artists in one unique venue for one amazing night. Each level boasts an array of talent, showcasing art in all its forms. This includes live music, installation art, live painting, face painting, roller skating and more. Food from Samosa Joes and Kin + Pod Pippity Pops will also be there so bring some extra cash (and your appetite)!
Prepare to be inspired by our local artists and musicians as you enjoy the spectacular view from the top of the Downtown Vernon Parkade.
