Located in the heart of the Kelowna Cultural District, the Laurel Packinghouse is the oldest and largest packinghouse of its kind in British Columbia. Built in the early 1900s from bricks made from Knox Mountain clay, the packinghouse remained in operation until the 1970s. Today, the Laurel is a dedicated heritage site and event space.

Laurel is an asymmetrical, triangle shawl, knit tip to end.
