Our Artwork
Are you curious about our stunning seasonal artwork? We have worked for several years with Lydia Avsec of Copilot Design to create gorgeous seasonal artwork! Using vivid colours and a variety of skills, Lydia typically paints the illustrations first before developing the posters digitally. As an arts organization, we have been delighted to continue to support visual art in elevating our concerts and embracing our values of beauty and excellence.
