JUNE 2010 IN VAN CITY | Glance 1: RETURN TO CREATIVE

A week-long, fundraising event, Return to Creative was aimed at re-engaging one’s artistic creativity, while cultivating the arts community in Vancouver, particularly after the recent funding cuts. It was hosted by Raw Canvas, between June 18 – 25, and concluded in a silent auction.

Each participant contributed $15, which provided them with an 8×8 canvas, along with some other goodies. Their final pieces were integrated into a mural with the themes community impact and cultural heritage. Other artists also donated work for the silent auction and the proceeds were donated to the Broadway Youth Resource Centre.

Check out our visit to Raw Canvas on June 24, a night hosted by Cloudscape. Tons of fun with painting, music and comedy, in a packed venue.
