Art is an additional price: The Anonymous Art Show Buying Night features art-buying tiers that determine the order in which you get to choose your piece. With so many incredible artworks available, every tier guarantees you'll take home something special. But here’s the catch—the lower the price tier, the later your art picking time, which means a higher chance someone else chooses your favourite piece first. Will you secure an early spot or take your chances? The choice is yours. - $500 Gold | 7:05 pm* (1 spot) - $400 Silver | 7:05 pm* (1 spot) - $300 Bronze | 7:05 pm* (1 spot) - #4 Art Spot Raffle | 7:10 pm* ($285 value - includes $35 entry ticket) Raffle tickets can be purchased in person only from March 6 at the Maury Young Arts Centre front desk until April 1 at 7:30pm.

Please make sure you arrive at least 15 minutes before your scheduled buying slot start time. Tax Receipts You may be eligible for a tax receipt. The baseline value of each Anonymous Art piece is set at $100. If you purchase a piece at a higher value than $100, you will receive a tax receipt for the difference. Example: If you buy a $150 spot, you will receive a $50 tax receipt. If you buy multiple $50 spots, no tax receipt is issued because each piece is below the baseline value. Want More Than One Piece? Purchase art in multiple categories — there is no limit to how many artworks you can buy. Can’t Attend? Can’t attend but still want to purchase art before it sells out?
