a celebration of arts and culture presented by the League of Kickass Business People
On June 23, 2010, you’re invited to join Vancouver’s trendspotters, tastemakers and cultural leaders on a backstage tour of some of the hottest organizations on the Vancouver arts scene. Get a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the business behind what you see on stage, discover cultural trends before they hit the mainstream, and immerse yourself in a stylish, entertaining evening that celebrates music, art, theatre and dance.
This event will be hosted at Buschlen Mowatt Gallery, where you’ll have the chance to get up close and personal with the works of renowned Italian painter Alessandro Papetti.
