Making the Most of Your Artwalk Experience – June 10, 2026

On June 10 a panel of seasoned artists will teach you how to Make the Most of Your Art Walk Experience. Included on the panel is Kim Fjordbotten, owner of The Paint Spot, and long-time producer of Whyte Avenue Art Walk. She has a wealth of experience and knowledge, from how to curate your display and price your art, to being prepared for weather.

Both workshops take place upstairs at Bell in Scona, 10416 80 Ave. The events don’t start until 7 pm, so you can kick off the evening early – meet your friends at the Brewpub downstairs for dinner and a craft beer. Check our their menu! 

Tickets are $20 +GST for each. Event capacity is 150 for each, so reserve your spot now!

Preference given to artists who are registered, but the fun is open to anyone. Watch for an Ice On Whyte Society receipt from Stripe after your purchase, and future emails and reminders from Activate Arts Alberta.
