Artcite’s annual Christmas FUN(d)raising exhibition and sale which takes place every December! This annual event is not only important to Artcite as a fundraiser but is also an opportunity for many artists (some of whom have never previously shown their work) to exhibit and sell their works. It features an immense amount of artworks (!) by over many artists from the area, and-as always, many pieces are created specifically for this special exhibit by old and new Artcite members (and many non-members); as a rule, all work is priced under $99.99!
Artcite Inc., Windsor’s non-profit, Artist-Run Centre for the Contemporary Arts, once again was pleased to present “Doin’ the Louvre”: Artcite’s 31st annual Christmas FUN(d)raising exhibition and sale.
“Give the gift they will enjoy for years to come: give the gift of ART!” (Or-at our crazy prices–add to your OWN fine art collection!)
ORIGINAL ART–paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, mixed media, sculpture–and artist-made gift items (holiday ornaments, books, toys, cards, ‘art wear’, jewellery, etc.) created by established and emerging Windsor and Detroit area artists will all be exhibited “salon style” (floor to 18′ ceiling, ala “The Louvre”), with all work priced for Christmas giving!
BIG sale prices for these one-of-a-kind art pieces start at 99¢(!) — and NOTHING is priced over $99.99!
Once again, shopping for unique X-mas items was never so easy!
