A thrilled crowd at last year’s Mini-Gala event. This year, the paintings will stay small but the party will be bigger -given the new and larger space to celebrate at the Cove Commons.

Come and be a part of Bowen Island history: The first annual Mini Gala Fundraiser and Exhibition to be held in the Gallery’s spectacular new home at the Cove Commons. 

The Bowen Island Arts Council is thrilled to be opening the doors with this first exhibit, to run from Friday, February 16 until Saturday, February 24, the night of our annual festive event. The fun-filled evening will not only be unveiling the gorgeous new space but will also showcase the incredible talent of more than 50 local artists. Special thanks to Opus Framing for once again providing canvasses and frames for the mini-masterpieces.

Join in the excitement of the live auction with the remarkable and hilarious David Cameron. All bidding starts at $125, a steal of a deal for an original piece from one of our much celebrated artists or up-and-coming new talent. There will be delicious nibbles, cash wine bar and delightful live entertainment provided by master musician, Marc Gawthrop. 

Tickets are available to purchase for $20 at Phoenix or online at www.biac.ca/mini-gala.php. Avoid disappointment and act fast as tickets to this fabulous evening sell out in a blink of an eye. The Gallery @ the Cove Commons will be open Friday - Sunday, 10 am - 4 pm. For more information, please call 604.947.2454.
