Canada Day Party! Join us for Life is a Slice!


OH CANADA!
Life is a Slice

Opening this Saturday, June 30th, NOON-2pm

Although no country is perfect, we're proud to call Canada home! There's never been a better time to support local everything and buy things close to home. That includes ART and this Saturday, June 30th, we have 30 little reasons why you should COME TO OUR ART PARTY!
The gallery will open at the strike of NOON for the extra special ONE-DAY show called "Life is a Slice",  where you can view and purchase any one of the 30 little slices of wood, transformed into miniature works of art by 30 different local artists. Expect paintings like the little slice shown above by artist Nick Brunt or the intricate clay sculpture by Miyoshi Kondo below.
SEE A SNEAK PEEK at MOST OF THE WORKS- as the last one's arrive today, we'll add their pictures HERE

Most works will be $50 with a few selected to be part of a silent auction, which people can participate in person or online at our AUCTION page on the blog tomorrow beginning at Noon as well. You can bid those works up one TWOONIE at a time. All bids will close at 2 pm.

*No works will be sold prior to the show but if you are interested in any, we can act as your proxy once the show opens. Just get in touch with your selections of bid maximums. *

We'll also have a bit of live music throughout the afternoon by a young emerging musician, Aubrey Rose. It's going to be a great time- bring your family and friends! Art is for everyone at Argyle Fine Art! 
                                               
We'll have sweet treats like delicious butter tarts provided by our neighbours, The Old Apothecary and you could win this adorable miniature beaver made by Basil Doucette by simply taking and sharing pictures of your favourite art at the gallery during Canada Day. Draw is at 4pm so visit before then for the WIN!
