Great Art ... Great Night...
The Little Art Show is the Artists’ Network signature fundraiser, and has established itself as one of Toronto's most innovative art events. The Artists' Network is dedicated to supporting artists in their visual arts practice. The Little Art Show allows the Artists' Network to help artists and operate their many programs.
Artists from around the world donate an 8 x 10 inch art work to be put up for silent auction. Work by well known artists such as Steven Nederveen, Beverly Owens, Kelly McCrea, and Stev'nn Hall will be up for auction. The crowd of art lovers gather at Mercedes-Benz downtown to enjoy an evening of art, entertainment, music, food and drinks. Arriving at the front door you are greeted by our free valet service which attends to your vehicle. The Little Art Show is a fun evening that allows you to support the artists, the Artists' Network and the Toronto arts community.

Ben Stansfield.
The event promises to be exciting and entertaining. There will be three wonderful lots offered for silent auction, a live art demonstration by Ben Stansfield . The work Ben creates will be the draw prize. There is also Hang Man at the LAS which is a gallery of larger work offered for sale. Other prizes are a model Smart Car donated by Mercedes Benz and painted by Artists' Network member Gary Smith, the use of a Smart Car for a period of time, and a course donated by the Toronto School of Art. Donating artists will be profiled and materials will be on hand so you can get to know them and their work. Many will be there in person.
This year the Artists' Network is proud to announce that
