Studio 366 Mural Auction
The video above documents what happened of October 7, 2009, when Nanaimo people came together to paint and exchange their thoughts and feelings about friendship and belonging at an event organized in conjunction with the Community Living Month Celebrations. Over the course of eight hours people painted, playing freely with textures, colours and patterns, on two large scale canvases. Now, Start With Art Nanaimo is auctioning off one of these murals, perfect for that bare wall at home or office. The silent auction will be this Friday, December 18, 2009, at Studio 366 during Start With Art Nanaimo’s Christmas Potluck. The starting bid is $250 with a minimum increment of $10. All proceeds of this sale will go toward supporting your community art studio, Studio 366. Drop by Studio 366, 366 Selby Street, Nanaimo, today from 5 to 9 pm or Friday, December 18, 2009, from 3 to 9 pm, to see the mural and make a bid. There will be bidding sheets available by the door all day Friday. While you’re there, don’t forget to take a close look at SWAN’s Christmas window display, artfully arranged by one of their members.
