What’s in the Box?

Support the Arts Centre at our annual fundraiser!

Each spring we look forward to hosting our annual “What’s in the Box?” fundraiser! Join us for an entertaining evening of delicious food, fine drink and an opportunity to support local artists. Funds from this event go towards our Artist’s Rights Fees program to support the artists who exhibit their work in the Saint John Arts Centre galleries.

During the event, you may have the chance to purchase a ‘mystery box’ containing a piece of original art. Each mystery artwork is generously donated by local professional artists. The demand for boxes is high, so attendees can choose to enter the draw for a chance to purchase a mystery box. Don’t fret if your ballot isn’t drawn – you can also support the artists directly by purchasing their work on display during the event.

Stay tuned for information about this annual event!
