Vancouver: The Cheaper Show brings a big art show for a small price
One word to describe this Saturday’s (June 26) ninth annual Cheaper Show is big—too big for just Vancouver. The single-night event supports emerging artists and also makes art accessible for younger buyers through a flat fee for all artwork—this year $200.
Over the past nine years, it has grown to more than double its original size. The show now boasts 400 pieces of art by 200 artists and will be held in the expansive space of Gastown’s W2 Storyeum. And in 2011, to celebrate its 10th anniversary, creative director Graeme Berglund and executive director Steve Rio will expand it to Toronto.
