DESIRE - VANCOUVER ART GALLERY AUCTION


Art patrons and artists will converge at the Vancouver Art Gallery on Saturday, February 18 for the gala fundraiser, beginning with an exclusive reception and live auction in the galleries at 6pm. Following the live auction, the evening will continue at the nearby Four Seasons Hotel Vancouver with a decadent dinner, a silent auction featuring more than 40 works, and dancing the night away. 

We hope the VAG, its patrons, and all of the participating artists have a fabulous evening and raise plenty of funds for future endeavors!
