An inspiring and interactive evening where creativity and community come together. HeArt of Red: Live Painting Experience celebrates artistic expression while raising vital funds for My Friend’s House in support of women and children facing gender-based violence and abuse in South Georgian Bay.

Throughout the evening, guests will witness the powerful process of art unfolding in real time. Ten talented artists will take part in two live painting rounds, each lasting 30 minutes. As the artists bring their canvases to life, attendees are invited to be part of the experience by casting their votes during each round.

At the end of the first two rounds, the top two artists from each will be selected to advance to the final round. These four finalists will compete in one last live painting session.

Artwork created during the first two rounds will be available through a silent auction, while the final four pieces will be showcased in an exciting live auction at the end of the night.

More than an art event, HeArt of Red: Live Painting Experience is a chance to come together in support of a shared vision - a community where everyone can live free from gender-based violence and abuse and feel safe, respected, and supported. Every bid, every vote, and every one of you help these women and children write their next chapter.
