The Mini Gala Exhibit is our biggest and most successful fundraiser of the year. Monies raised contribute to the ongoing operation of the Gallery @ Artisan Square. Our sponsor, Opus Framing & Art Supplies generously donates 8" x 8" canvasses and a limited number of frames for watercolour work. Artists are invited to participate by creating a mini-masterpiece and donating it to the Arts Council.
The Gala is set for February 18, when the Gallery will host the spectacular event and annual live auction. Bidding is brisk as art lovers vie to take home coveted treasures. Our theme this year will be “Mardi Gras” with the Gallery decorated in vibrant colours, so start thinking about your costume for this affair not to be missed!
Blank canvases and frames are now ready for pick-up at the Gallery awaiting the creative touch of Bowen's talented artists. We ask that you fill in the Mini Gala Artist sheet with contact info when you pick up a canvas or frame. Gallery hours are Wednesday to Sunday, 10:00 am to 5:00 pm until December 31st.
Participating artists will receive one non-transferable complimentary ticket to the Mini Gala Party when their artwork is dropped off. The art deadline and drop off is Sunday January 29th, from 12:00-4:00 pm. If you have any questions regarding the Mini Gala, please contact Emilie Kaplun, Gallery Curator at gallery@biac.ca
We appreciate your support!
