ART CIRCUIT is coming to the Tannery September 9! Think outdoor Art Battle with a twist! Instead of competing against each other, Art Circuit is a collaboration where each artist moves around a circuit of easels and works together on paintings based on themes suggested earlier by the audience-with a time limit at each easel.
Get in the Circuit and cheer on the artists as they bring your ideas to life!
The resulting one-of-a-kind paintings are available for silent auction and 100% of profits from the paintings are split among the participating artists!

Inspired by Gaston Leroux’s 1910 novel of the same name, Atlantic Ballet Atlantique Canada’s PHANTOM OF THE OPERA is a captivating story which evokes timeless themes and images of outcasts, love, and the power of obsession.
The story has continued to excite the imaginations of readers. reaching across different cultures and eras. An exile, rejected by the only world he knows, Erik, the Phantom, hides a romantic heart and a sensitive soul. But driven by a hopeless love, he becomes a menacing spectre, inhabiting a sinister domain of his own creation.
With original choreography by Igor Dobrovolskiy set to the music of Francis Poulenc, PHANTOM OF THE OPERA features lush costumes created by Paul Daigle and an intriguing set design by Brian Perchaluk. Pierre Lavoie’s ethereal mix of light and shadows perfectly captures the eerie world where a love triangle ensnares, Erik, the beautiful ingénue whom he loves, and the dashing young viscount who wins her heart.
