Art Crawl  Burnaby Heights

It is a celebration of local art, artists and art lovers in Burnaby and the region.   For two days this fundraising and community run event brings together not only Burnaby artists,  but also local merchants, resident volunteers and art lovers galore.   This project is a vital step towards building a stronger community through the arts.  

 

Why an Art Crawl?

In 2017 the North House, guided by a resident steering committee,  wanted to ensure that current programs and services were responding to local needs.  Our 2017 North Burnaby survey ranked Arts and Culture among the top elements missing in the neighbourhood.  Our popular Art Wall exhibition space that is open to local artists, was the first step to address this need.  Building on this successful program, the Art Crawl will continue this mission and raise much-needed funds to keep the North House open.   By placing art at the forefront, we create a vibrant and thriving economy, our neighbourhoods become livelier, communities are revitalized and residents and visitors are more connected.                           

 

Let’s create it together!
