Have you checked the Fraser Valley Watermedia Society's latest show? Catch it online until November 30.

Sales from the Anonymous Art Show are split 50/50 between the artist and the Abbotsford Arts Council, providing funds that help us support the arts locally (and those who create it) by creating opportunities and funding valuable programs like free community events, exhibition space, arts initiatives and more. The arts and culture sector has been hit hard by the global pandemic and many artists have seen sales drop, opportunities dwindle and jobs disappear. Supporting the arts in our community has never been more important. This is shopping that feels good! If you'd like to help, tag a friend for a 'virtual art gallery date' TONIGHT at 7pm! #supportthearts #shoplocalabbotsford #abbotsfordartscouncil #anonymousartshow #anonymous2020
