Event Information
About this event
Amazing things happen when the arts get together!
Since the 2019 Arts Match was such a success, we thought we'd bring it back! Don't be fooled by the name, Arts Match is not just for singles. It's a networking event for all artists, artisans and arts enthusiasts in Wood Buffalo to meet like minded people, learn about different arts based organizations, arts opportunities, venues and how to get involved! ACWB invites all artists and artisans in Wood Buffalo to our FREE Arts Match 2.0 event on January 30, 5:30 - 8:30 PM in the Keyano Gallery / Theatre Lobby.
Are you an actor, singer, dancer, musician looking for opportunities to perform? Visual artist looking for an opportunity to show and or sell your work? Would you like to volunteer in the arts, find a mentor, or you don't know what you want except you want to be part of the arts in Wood Buffalo?
Let's find your magic connection at the ACWB Arts Match!
What should Artists expect?
This fun and engaging event is based on the speed networking model where individuals have 2 minutes to talk directly to organizations/groups at each booth about that orgs/groups' projects and programs, and how the individual can get involved. Depending on your arrival time, you will be assigned a "round". The rounds last roughly 30 minutes, with additional opportunities to network with other artists outside of your round.
Looking to host a Booth?
Are you an organization in Wood Buffalo looking to work with artists? Are you an individual or group working on a project and need artist participants?
