One of Toronto’s best-loved and most outrageous art auctions, ArtAttack!, Buddies art party fundraiser extravaganza, offers art aficionados and novices alike an exclusive chance to take home a work of art by over 60 visual artists. We know all those gurls are saying their art fundraisers are the best—but if you’ve ever been to Buddies you know we know how to throw a party.

ArtAttack!’s live auction collection showcases the best in contemporary Canadian art and has been curated by four incredible curators - Steven Beckly, Alex Bowron, Craig D'Arville, and Katlin Rogers. The Tuck Shop is back with artist originals and multiples all priced at $150 or less. 

Hosted by the always entertaining and funny Ava Val, with auctioneer Frances Fripp, this is the party of the fall fundraising auction season and one you won’t want to miss!

Doors, Registration, and Tuck Shop open 7:00pm

Auction at 8:00pm
