This post is mostly for my fellow AOMer's and anyone who is interested in seeing some of the photographs I took on the night of the "Release Your Inner Artist" auction, which was last Friday evening...it was a good night, deemed a success and involved and invited many local leaders the chance to be artists and to create unique one of a kind pieces. The dignitaries involved were; Nipissing MP Monique Smith, Mayor Vic Fedeli, Deputy Mayor Peter Chirico, Coun. Judy Koziol, CTS Canadian Career College President and CEO Carlos Carvalho, MP Anthony Rota, Canadore College President Barbara Taylor and Nipissing University President Lesley Lovette-Doust and even some of their family members.
It was a great chance for Art On Main and it's artists to reach out to the community and not only give them a taste of our world and a glimpse into our creative process...
...but it was a great opportunity to open up the art world and show that it really can be an inviting and friendly place to dwell or visit from time to time!
I hope all are pleased with my photos from the evening and thanks to everyone from Art On Main Downtown Collective, you all worked so diligently and hard on this project for the rest of us who couldn't be involved. Thanks to the guest artists who had the courage to try something different. And Thanks to everyone else, including supportive spouses, etc who came on out in support. Be Well Everyone and thanks for popping by.

Mandy thanks so much for sharing photos from a most wonderful evening. Your photos show how much everyone enjoyed themselves -both our wonderfully talented guests and AOM Artists.

Looks like a nice evening of enjoying art and friendship.
Don't you just love this time of year.
It was a nice evening...too bad it didn't pull in the crowd it should have. Having the celebrity artists bit on their own pieces was not have things should have went :-(
