13th Annual Under $100 Art Show
Event Information
About this Event
We would like to thank you all for your patience as we awaited further instruction from AHS regarding our event. We are super excited to share the good news with you- we have now been approved to hold the art show! We will be proceeding with the show as soon as possible, only one week after its original date. That means that the show is Dec 9th -13th.
We have strict Covid protocols in place and are operating at 25% of our capacity. We invite you to review these safety measures on our website.
Masks are mandatory. If you are mask exempt we kindly ask that you skip this year.
Adhere to social distancing rules by keeping a 2 metre distance between you and others and follow directional signage in the exhibition space. Don't worry - we have 17,000 sq feet and have staggered ticket sales for a limited capacity, there will be no problem keeping a healthy distance from others!
Wash your hands, use hand sanitizing stations often and avoid touching your face. Limit the things you touch while at the exhibition. Only touch the artwork you are serious about buying.
Download the COVID Alert app. By using this app, health officials are better equipped to quickly identify and tackle the spread of COVID-19.
Due to new Covid restrictions, all guests will be assigned an entry time with their ticket. As such, we have added an extra evening to make sure to get everyone in! Please continue reading for new and important ticket details..
Wednesday Dec 9 & Thursday Dec 10 - Opening Receptions. 5-10pm
Tickets for the opening reception are $20, with no timing restrictions. Guests are available to stay all night, as the artists continually rehang artwork. We will be pre selling 50 tickets for each night. Closer to the date, once we get our location and capacity locked down, we may make 1hour time slot tickets available by pre sale or walk in, capacity dependent.
Friday Dec 11th- Sunday Dec 13th 11am-7pm
Tickets for these days will be based on a 45 minute time slot and cost $5. At the end of the 45 minute time slot, artists will rehang work in preparation for the next group of guests to enter. As such, we can guarantee that there will be large work put out every hour. We will have no “feature wall” this year, instead we will be putting out large pieces every morning, and throughout the day.
Guests who take a selfie at the art show and tag #under100artshow and follow @artspot.yyc are welcome to use that as their re entry pass all weekend, capacity dependent.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but we are doing what we can to make sure this show goes on! This year is taking a lot more planning and staffing to keep all of our guests and artists safe, with a seamless schedule of guest turnover and art hanging. It is our goal to ensure the success of our artists, and satisfaction of our supporters. Please stay tuned for updates.
Location to be announced closer to the date.
