Sunbury Shores – Guess Who? Mystery Celebrity Art Auction
Saturday October 2nd I will be participating in a mystery art auction at Sunbury Shores Arts & Nature Centre in St. Andrews by-the-sea to raise funds to continue to provide arts/nature education for children (and adults) of all ages.
Local and national artists, craftspeople, writers, musicians, actors, radio / television personalities, politicians have been “getting creative” with 6″ x 8″ pieces of canvas. The names of the “creators” will be signed on the backs of each work of art so buyers won’t know who’s work they are buying until they’ve bought it. There will be works of art from wildlife artist Robert Bateman, CTV meteroligist Cindy Day, comedian Lorne Elliott, CBC radio host Jian Ghomeshi and CTV personality Seamus O’Regan. We also have incredible creations from William Forrestall, Ann Manuel, Geoff Slater and more.

Royal Bank of Canada Emerging Artist Project 2010
The RBC Emerging Artist Support Project is pillared on long-term partnerships with organizations whose programs bridge the gap from academic excellence to professional careers in all aspects of the arts. Almost without exception, program participants have passed national or international audition/jury processes. This year, emerging artists from the Fredericton Arts Alliance Artists in Residence Summer Series have been invited to participate following their residencies. The chosen pieces will be exhibited at RBC branches for the month of September.
This year’s participating artists are:
Marsha Clark, Derek Davidson, Oliver Flecknell, Erin Hamilton, John MacDermid, Leigh Merritt, Deanna Musgrave, Susan Pierce, Tony Robinson Smith and Shanie Stozek.
