ARTIST CALL - ART IN THE OPEN 2013

Thank you!

BAC thanks the public, members and groups who shared the Sister Cities International (SCI) Showcase link in and around Facebook. We appreciate you spreading the word to Brampton’s youth. Don’t forget to promote to young artists you know as the deadline for artist projects is next week Monday!

Local artist gone but not forgotten

It is our sad news to announce that local artist Helen Purvis passed away recently. She was a long time member of Brampton Arts Council and Beaux-Arts Brampton. We offer our deepest condolences to her loved ones.
