ArtMatch presents an an art show to support Calgary artists of all abilities.
We are proud to announce a local art exhibition showcasing a selection of original artworks by Calgary artists, including Joseph Hnatuk, a local Calgary artist living with schizophrenia. For the past 8 years, Joseph has been part of Vecova’s employment services, building clientele and marketing his artwork in Calgary. Joseph is a strong advocate for community inclusion and employment opportunities for those living with disabilities and mental health issues.
This event is being hosted by ArtMatch in collaboration with Vecova, a leading edge, registered and accredited charitable organization that has been meeting the lifelong and changing needs of persons of all abilities and the community since 1969. A portion of the proceeds from painting sales will go to Vecova (learn more about the organization).
WHAT:
