Have you taken a walk around the Nanaimo waterfront? You will have noticed a number of outdoor art sculptures. You can bid on any of these art works.

The Nanaimo Art Gallery’s Public Art Partnership with the City of Nanaimo began its 2nd year of outdoor artworks. The City of Nanaimo crews installed six public art pieces at Maffeo Sutton Park, one at McGregor Park, and an eighth at the recently renovated Beban Park Social Centre. The work will be on display until April 2012 and all of the pieces can be bid on at the on-line auction at the Nanaimo Art Gallery website.  The auction proceeds will benefit the Nanaimo Art Gallery and the City’s temporary art project fund.
