Arts Place Gallery has been a fixture in Port Colborne’s art scene for over 25 years. The Gallery has weathered many trends but has always taken pride in providing the community with professional presentations and exhibits of the work of notable artists from within the Region and beyond. The Gallery is able to present these shows, provide classes, workshops, poetry readings, photo journals and other artistic endeavours because of its loyal patrons and supporters. A good part of the support comes from work the artists and members put into the annual Silent Auction and the donations received from the community and the member artists. The many returning attendees who take part year after year, will agree that the Silent Auction has a lively atmosphere, is an entertaining event and they are excited about their successful bids. It is also important and fun for the participating artists to connect with those people who attend the Auction. A successful Silent Auction event will ensure the Gallery’s programming and services will continue and keep fees at a minimum for the local community and artists.
Liisa Harju has donated these 3 quilts from her recent exhibition with Patti Harris, “Fibre & Foundry”, to this years auction.
