The project which was started as a deterrent to graffiti in our back alleyways has blossomed into a full fledged gallery featuring 19 large scale pieces of art work that adorn the alleyways. People from all walks of life stop by to admire the art work. There is a map on page 28 which you can use to follow the downtown art trail or for a more comprehensive look at the gallery you can join the Customer Care & Patrol Team on Tuesdays and Thursdays for their guided Outdoor Art Gallery Tour for a walk through Downtown Kamloops’ Alleyway murals, public art and historic buildings. The tour leaves Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6:45pm sharp from the Customer Info Centre at 340 Victoria Street (next to Boston Pizza).

Mittz Kitchen doesn’t stand out because of its awesome blue door or its incredible ownership, the reasons extend right from their interesting and glorious array of food; think pulled chicken poutine, beef & bison chili or a pappardelle braised beef ragu right down to their watermelon mint coolers during happy hour. Their staff is beyond accommodating, always taking the time to explain the menu items or making sure that everything is up above your standards.

Instinct Adornment has a long history in Downtown Kamloops. The owner, Jenna Dittrich, started the body piercing studio in 1999 through Community Futures and described Instinct as a “right out of high school venture”. Initially, Instinct operated out of a small studio space. They have since expanded and moved to another Downtown location, 319 Victoria Street, where the shop has been happily settled for the past ten years! When asked what sets Instinct apart, Jenna explained how they believe in focusing on “one thing and doing it well”. Jenna and her team of body piercing specialists are very “dedicated to their training” always ensuring that they keep updated. Two of the team members are even members of the, internationally recognized, Association of Professional Piercers. The store works to carry good quality items that the staff really love.
