CELEBRATE CANADA'S 150th BIRTHDAY WITH A PARTY FOR SOCIAL GOOD! Timeraiser150 Winnipeg brings together the love of local art and philanthropy at Graffiti Art Programming Gallery, on June 15. What is Timeraiser? Timeraiser is a party for social good, supporting artists and nonprofits. Here’s your chance to kickstart your art collection by giving back to your community. Bid volunteer time, not dollars, for original art by emerging Canadian artists. Bidding starts at 20 hours and maxes out at 150 hours. If a piece you love reaches 150 hours, anyone can match that bid and we’ll draw a winner at random from the max bids once the auction ends. If you win, you have one year to finish volunteer hours and claim your piece of art. The best part? Volunteer with any nonprofit(s) you choose! This event sells out every year. Don’t miss out and get your tickets early! Timeraiser150 is a Canada 150 Signature Project supporting emerging Canadian artists and non-profit organizations.
