Art Battle Whitehorse

Art Battle is a competitive painting program that started in Toronto.  12 painters take part in an event, in 2 rounds of 6.  Each round lasts 20 minutes.  The audience watches the whole process and then votes for their favourite pieces.  The top two artists from each round compete in a third and final 20 minute round to name the event’s champion.  Then all of the art is auctioned off via silent auction.  This year communities across the country will host Art Battles that will ultimately lead to a national championship.  You can check out the national website here: http://artbattle.ca/
