WHY SUPPORT OUR LOCAL ARTISTS

Supporting local artists in Vancouver enriches the community and fosters creativity. Here are some meaningful ways to support our local artists in Vancouver:

• Attend Local Art Events: Vancouver hosts numerous art shows, exhibitions, and festivals. By attending these events, you will enjoy diverse artistic expressions and provide support to artists.
• Buy Local Art: Purchasing artwork directly from local artists or galleries helps sustain their practice. Whether it’s a painting, sculpture, or handmade jewelry, buying local art ensures that artists can continue creating.
• Promote on Social Media: Use your social media platforms to showcase the work of local artists. Sharing their art, upcoming events, and personal stories can help increase their visibility and reach.
• Participate in Workshops: Many artists offer workshops and classes. Participating in these supports them financially and allows them to learn new skills and appreciate the effort behind their work.
• Collaborate and Network: If you have a business, consider collaborating with local artists for events, promotions, or displays in our program: Support Local Venues. Networking with artists and other art enthusiasts can create a supportive community.

By actively engaging in these activities, you help to support local artists in Vancouver to enrich the cultural fabric of the city and ensure that our creative community continues to thrive.
