GIVE to get art auction
THANK YOU! 💖
We are overwhelmed with the amazing success of this year’s GIVE TO GET ART Auction. Together, we have exceeded our fundraising goal, raising $150,000 for the Ottawa Art Gallery.
The continued success of this fundraising event is truly a testament to the support of our community and how they see the valuable work of the OAG. Thank you for your amazing support!
For more than 20 years, the Ottawa Art Gallery (OAG) has welcomed attendees for the Give to Get Art Auction, bringing together a vibrant community of art lovers, collectors, and creatives for the art event of the year. This annual fundraiser not only champions the incredible talent of the Ottawa-Gatineau region but also fuels OAG’s public exhibitions, Permanent Collection, and dynamic array of community programs.
Thank you to our sponsors!
Exhibiting Artist Selection Process
The OAG carefully curates an artist invitation list for the Give to Get Art Auction, which includes artists who are currently working with the OAG (through our exhibitions, the OAG Shop/Galerie Annexe, and our public programs), as well as a variety of artists from across the region who are in varying stages of their career (emerging, mid-career and senior artists), and who represent a diverse range of mediums. The list is updated and rotated regularly for the sake of buyer interest and inclusivity, while also aiming to highlight the diversity of the region, in addition to featuring a selection of art at a wide range of price points. When reviewing the list each year, the OAG gathers input from staff, volunteers, members, and the artist representatives on our board of directors, who all work directly with the arts community. If you have questions or concerns about this process, you are welcome to contact Zoë MacNeil at 613.233.8699+221 or zmacneil@oaggao.ca.
