What is Art Night?

Art Night is when PEI’s creative community comes together to connect. It’s a time to meet and and learn from our peers from all disciplines while enjoying presentations and activities tailored for our audience.

Presented by CreativePEI, The City of Charlottetown, and The Guild.

When is it?

Art Night happens at 5pm on the first Friday of the month from October through June, excluding January. 

Who is welcome?

Everyone is welcome. The event is aimed at folks for whom art and creativity play a major part of their lives, especially arts sector workers.

Although these events are aimed for adult audiences, children are welcome to attend with the supervision of their guardian.

What happens?

Each event will be hosted by a different artist, collective, or arts organization and they will present the activity for the evening – be it an artist talk, a workshop, a play reading, etc. 

If there is a hands-on-activity, supplies will be provided.

Activities include:

• Artist Talks
• Play Readings
• Improv
• Zine Making
• Casual Panel Discussions
• Monologues
• Short Films
• Instructional Workshops
• Presenting Practice
• Music Experimentation

Upcoming Schedule

Friday, June 6th

This June, CreativePEI is partnering with PridePEI to bring you Art Night at The Guild: Art Attack Edition on June 6th from 5-7pm. During this session, we will screen a few different episodes of the hit 90s kids’ show Art Attack and try our hand at making the masterpiece that host Neil Buchanan is guiding us through.

All the supplies will be provided, and the episodes pre-selected. This event is for ALL ages, is free to the public, and will have some light snacks provided!

Come join us for this nostalgic hang as we attempt to complete a few of Neil Buchanan’s big ideas. 🎨🖌️

This event is supported by The City of Charlottetown.
