Happy 35th Anniversary Show + Sale!!
Join us for our 35th Show + Sale Celebration Bash. Discover unique designs, paintings, ceramics, jewellery, fibre, and much, much more!
Entirely run by the Students’ Association at AUArts and hosted on the Alberta University of Arts campus, this program was built by students for students! To commemorate the occasion, we are inviting AUArts Alumni to celebrate with us, and their original artwork is for sale along with our current AUArts emerging student artists.
Family Friendly Day enjoy a hot beverage from our friends at Kaffeeklatsch (https://www.kaffeeklatsch.ca/) while you take in some artist demonstrations hosted by current students.
Entry by monetary donation at the door, on the Eventbrite, or by bring non-perishable items for our student pantry are encouraged. This year, our goal is to establish a student award in memorial of Mike Hooves to honor our dear friend, colleague, and AUArts SA legacy holder who we sadly lost to cancer earlier this year.
Come support established and emerging artists, find unique artwork, and shop for a one-of-a-kind holiday gift! We hope to see you this November!
