aRT FOR ALL

2024 Fundraiser

Buy a piece of Art for $50! Many artists have donated over 70 artworks on 6” x 6” wood panels with proceeds going to the art program at **Coast Mental Health** and one art student at Lord Byng High School will also receive a scholarship.

The first ART FOR ALL Fundraiser was launched in 2018. Funds help Coast Mental Health provide art supplies for their free programs in downtown Vancouver. Their Resource Centre’s Art Room opened in 2000, and is a place where clients discover their creative potential while developing new ways of expressing emotions, healing pain and growing their self-esteem and self-awareness. Supported by volunteers - including clients and professional artists and art instructors – who give their time, feedback and encouragement - clients are able to work in a number of media including paint and sculpture; supplies are provided.

An annual art show brings together the artists, other Resource Centre members, and Coast clients, family and friends and the general public to celebrate their work and their journey towards recovery.

Here are some of the fabulous artworks available for purchase during the West of Main Art Walk, May 25-26, 2024.
