CANVAS SWAP! at BAC


Host: Member - Terri Elvald
Contact: valkyri@valkyri.org

We'll once again be starting up the Canvas Swap Collaborative Art Project at the Barrie Art Club. The first meeting will be on Monday, January 8th at 6:30 pm.

It's free to participate for members and is a low-commitment activity that will ensure that you're painting or creating something each month, socializing with other artists, and pushing your limits creatively.

We meet on the 2nd Monday of the Month at the Club at 6:30 pm to "Swap" - at the first meeting you will bring a canvas of any size or shape that you like. We ask that you give it at very least a coat or two of gesso. You also may tone the canvas, or create a rudimentary background (simple, meant to be covered over) if you wish. You will leave with someone else's canvas to take home and over the course of a month, you will create something on it, leaving lots of room for others to work on it as well. There are no rules (though we all agree to respect each other's contribution to the pieces) and you can use any medium that you can get to stick to the canvas. 

If you're unable to join us in January, you still have a few months to join, just bring your canvas to one of the meet ups and we can start you swapping. We will cut off new joiners eventually to make sure that each canvas has enough time to be "finished" by the end of the year, so don't wait too long! We do have a pretty good system in place for those that have to miss a meeting now and then (we all have something that comes up) so as long as you're able to drop off the piece at the club sometime before the meeting and pick your new one up sometime after the meeting, it works out fine.
