The Metro Vancouver Chapter of the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada (RAIC) would like to invite you to Art x Architects – archKIDecture, an art exhibition and silent auction opening on Thursday, September 17th at the Architecture Gallery of the AIBC. Over 100 works of art have been graciously donated by the Metro Vancouver architecture and design community to be auctioned off with partial proceeds going to Architecture for Kids, an Artists for Kids program put on by the Gordon Smith Gallery in North Vancouver, with the RAIC Foundation generously matching all proceeds.
The exhibition will run from September 8th to November 5th, featuring work from Perkins + Will, Stantec, HOK, and IBI Group among many other local architecture offices. Complimentary refreshments and a cash bar will be available, along with live jazz music and a presentation by Architecture for Kids.
A jury of distinguished professionals will select two juror awards:
Bruce Grenville, Senior Curator of the Vancouver Art Gallery
Mauro Vescera, Board Chair of the Gordon and Marion Smith Foundation
Wayne De Angelis, Immediate Past President of the RAIC.
The jury will also select a People’s Choice Award | Kids’ Choice Award.
Join us in supporting the architecture and design community of the future!
