ESA Visual Art, Photography, and Film invite you to FIFTEEN openings and events in the coming weeks (in two countries!) in our busiest spring ever!!
This follows on our recent success in the 2014 Scholastic Art and Writing Awards in which Etobicoke School of the Arts won more awards at the national level than any COUNTRY in the world other than the USA!
We would love to have you join us for a series of nine art openings at ESA on Thursday nights from April to June. Openings take place from 3.30 pm to 8pm each Thursday night at Etobicoke School of the Arts, 675 Royal York Road, M8Y 2T1.
May 22nd is the opening of our Year End Art Show. Last year people lined up to purchase more than $15000 worth of work. This is an amazing opportunity to collect work by young artists that post-secondary programs consider amongst the best in the world. Visitors are invited to join us from 3.30 to 8pm to view several thousand works in a range of media by students in both Visual Art and Photography classes.
Art Talk 2 on April 11th follows our hugely successful Art Talk 1 which took place in December at ESA. Fifteen ESA students will be speaking about their connection to the work they are making. OCADU has graciously donated the use of their Auditorium for this event – thank you! Look for us in The Grid on Thursday April 10th!
Our exhibition in the 2014 Contact Photography Festival takes place at KUMF Gallery – 2118-A Bloor Street West suite 204. Please join us for the opening from 7pm to 9pm!
