November 13 – 28:
GIFT GIVING X2
A Pop-up Art Show and Sale
Support local artists and the Fernie Museum all at once, and pick up a great gift for yourself or a loved one at the same time!
Artists are frequently asked to donate their works to help with much needed fund raising for many good causes in our community and have been incredibly generous with both their skills and time. This show and sale concept aims to take that concept and give back to the artists while also gaining neccessary support for our non-profit organisation.
The Museum will provide a gallery setting for artists to sell their gallery-quality work ahead of the holiday season, receiving 25% of the proceeds, while the artist retains the remainder, and you take home some beautiful artwork.
