The Grove Art Gallery has some upcoming opportunities for local artists and vendors.
Get spooky with the arts council this Halloween!
This Friday, Sept. 27 marks the application deadline for local makers looking to participate in the Dark Arts Market at McLean Mill. Set against the backdrop of the annual 'Haunting at the Mill' this Halloween, the market promises a blend of spooky and creative experiences.
Scheduled for Oct. 26-27, the Dark Arts Market will feature sales of artistic creations and craft workshops that celebrate the season. Artists of all styles and mediums are encouraged to apply, especially those who can enhance the Halloween theme with spooky, mystical, or autumn-inspired works.
Interactive workshop hosts are also welcome. For more details or to apply, visit alberniarts.com/dark-arts-market or email admin@alberniarts.com.
