The From Our Walls exhibition at the Island Mountain Arts public gallery highlights the legacy of the late Marie Nagel, a prominent figure in the Wells community. Running from late August through mid-September 2026, the show brings together more than 30 of Nagel's semi-abstract acrylic paintings. These works often depict the mountains, forests, and historic buildings of the Cariboo landscape, with many pieces being shown in public for the first time after being held in private collections for years.

In addition to her visual art, the exhibit features a collection of the Wells Community News, a monthly newsletter that Nagel edited and published for a decade. The gallery maintains public hours from Thursday to Sunday during the exhibition's run. Visitors also have the opportunity to view or purchase special 2027 calendars that feature a variety of Nagel’s artwork, originally produced for her celebration of life.
