The silly season is upon us and we would like to throw your favorite winter event into the mix!! Art throwdown is on and we are stoked to welcome a new bunch of artists and a new DJ to the stage on the 27th!! If you haven’t been to one of these make sure you get there!
But let me give you a rundown so you know what to expect. On the night there will be 2 heats of 3 artists on stage. Heats are only an hour long for which the artists can create pretty much anything they like. Painting, drawing, pyrography, You name it.
At the end of the heat you ‘the audience’ will vote for your favorite piece with the winner taking home some prizes and earning a spot in the finals in march.
You will also have the chance to go home with art pieces created on the night. Buy some raffle tickets and go in the draw to win. All money raised from the raffles goes to the artists which is a great way to show your appreciation for their talents and bravery while also taking home some saweeeettt Art!! So who do we have on stage in round 2?
