After a short hiatus, THEMUSEUM is proud to host Waterloo Region’s original and premiere live art making event, The Brush Off, again on Saturday, January 28, 2023, at 7:30pm. This will be our 10th edition of this event, so it is a milestone celebration! During this fundraising event, artists are invited to participate in a friendly competition, painting and creating art live in front of an audience of up to 400 people! Artists will expose and be exposed to the wealth of artistic talent that exists in this community and beyond!
Guests will enjoy a cocktail while watching artists create right in front of their eyes during this fast-paced art-making competition. Throughout the night, you’ll even vote on your favourite paintings and have the chance to take one home from our silent auction.
THEMUSEUM is a registered not-for-profit, charitable organization and puts on events like this one to fundraise to stay open and offer fresh and relevant exhibitions and programming to this community. Each artist is donating their time to create the art and THEMUSEUM and artists share in the silent auction proceeds.
Doors open at 6:30 pm, with the competition beginning at 7:30 pm.
This is an all-ages event, however, is not recommended for anyone under the age of 12. IDs will be checked for purchasing any alcoholic drinks.
