The upcoming Tinfoil Ball just may be the most amazing event this column has ever seen. How awesome does that sound, eh!

For one night only, escape to the Kelowna Art Gallery for an evening inspired by the shimmering aesthetic of tin foil.

Expect to enter a space inspired by foil, metals, and the light that plays off of their surfaces. Guests are also encouraged to get creative by incorporating silver, metallic, and foil accents, for their interpretation of the theme, into their outfit and/or accessories for this evening.

Art Gallery board member Stoke Tonne of Meiklejohn Architects will be there and you know him from his talented works on the Innovation Centre downtown. I look forward to seeing what creative suit or outfit he comes up with.

Congratulations to Brent Stewart, new owner of Wings Restaurant at the Willow Park Mall in Rutland.

Brent has been in Kelowna for a long time and has run some great kitchens throughout his chef career. You’ve probably had his food before but just don’t know it was him cooking. He is known for his from scratch recipes and good old home cooking. Check out their menu because it’s way more than just wings. 

We’re lucky to have Brent running a place if his own!

Make sure to sit in Michele’s section when you go because you’re guaranteed to have a great time and phenomenal service.

See you there for some fun, food and drinks.
 

November is here and those good looking boys are starting to grow the hair on their lip to bring awareness to testicular cancer.

This doesn’t mean you can let all your other hair grow to ugly lengths, so go see Tommy Guns this Saturday for their Cuts For Nuts event.

$10 from every haircut will go to testicular cancer research. All you need to do is show up and let them make you look good again.
