The Mini Mural Project - ArtsWells Fundraiser

Want a Mini Mural on your home or business in Wells? For a minimum bid of $100 you can choose a Mini Mural to rent for two years. All works will be framed and protected for outdoor hanging and will remain in the permanent collection of IMA. These 4’ x 4’ Mini Murals were painted at the 2019 ArtsWells Festival and bidding will run until Thursday, March 26, 2020, 10pm. All proceeds will contribute to making the 2020 festival a success for our many artists, volunteers, staff and patrons. We couldn't do this without your continual support!

We will be hosting a closing event on Thursday, March 26 from 7pm-10pm at the Gallery. Participating bidders will be entered into a draw for an ArtsWells Gift Package, including two tickets to this year's festival!

The Mini Mural project was created in 2009 by Wells artist Caroline Anders and has been responsible for adorning the town of Wells with many beautiful murals that can be seen on our houses and businesses.

Island Mountain Arts would like to sincerely thank the artists who created a mural at the 2019 Festival, as well as all the artists that contributed to previous projects.

Mini Murals have to stay in Wells, but if you would like to donate to this year's ArtsWells you can here: http://support-imarts.com/ima-take-action

Every little bit helps!

Also a big thanks to all of you in Wells who already have murals on your homes and businesses. Happy bidding!

Island Mountain Arts has been operating in the vibrant 1930's gold rush town of Wells since 1977 and is just down the road from Barkerville Historic Town & the Bowron Lakes. Island Mountain Arts runs a Public Gallery/Artisan Gift Shop, School of the Arts, featuring courses in visual, literary & performance arts, including the Toni Onley Artists' Project and the International Harp School. In 2004 it created the ArtsWells Festival of all Things Art held annually on the August Long Weekend, which features tons of music & workshops, visual art installations, plus the One Minute Play Festival. In the summer of 2014, Island Mountain Arts launched the CAWS For the Nest Campaign to raise funds to purchase a property in the historic commercial district of Wells in order to run an Artist-In-Residence program and expand its capacity for arts programming in the Cariboo.
