Art Battle Masters
This month we’ll be underground in Longboat Hall (at The Great Hall), a very cool 2 floor space with 360 wrap-around balcony. And we got to thinking, let’s do something a little different and also see some really really amazing Art.
So here it is:
This special one-time event features 6 of Toronto’s best live painters, working with extended time to create a single masterpiece. They will have 60minutes total painting time, broken up into two 30 minutes rounds. Artists will continue in the second round on their same canvas, taking their time to manifest one amazing work of art.

In between the two rounds there will be a 30min dance break, also time to talk to an artist about their work. It’s 90 minutes of pure fun and at the end of the second round, the audience votes and crowns the Champion, awarding a $1000 Prize.
The paintings created are up for silent auction as usual, this is a great place to connect with an artist and collect something beautiful that has its own intense story.
