The 10x10 Art Show is back! In March, ICM launched the 11th season of the 10x10 art project. It draws together artists from many diverse backgrounds, who live in, work in and support Saskatoon’s Core neighborhoods. The show brings together experienced artists and new ones; indigenous, metis and new immigrants; artists with jobs and those who struggle. Together their art is their voice- a glimpse into their diverse journeys. Covid has forced us to think of new ways to compl...ete the show. Instead of an in-person show, bidding will take place online Nov. 2nd-19th. The bidding site will go live Nov. 2nd at 7 am showing the art and comments from the artists. www.icmsaskatoon.webstore.com Check the 10 x 10 Art Celebration Facebook page for regular Updates Click on the event for more information.
