The Fort McMurray International Airport hosted the launch of the 2025 YMM Digital Art Exhibit’s Art of Connection Series on April 4, attracting over 80 art enthusiasts and community members.
The event showcased the talents of local artists Lisa Smith, Rienna Blare Davey, and Hira Noor, highlighting their contributions to the vibrant arts scene in the region. Guests had the opportunity to engage with the artists and experience their original works up close.
Attendees enjoyed viewing the original pieces and hearing directly from the artists. A special thanks to Earls Kitchen + Bar for the delicious food and drinks, and to Chris Pottie for the live music. The event raised over $2,400 for Arts Council Wood Buffalo through ticket sales, donations, and a silent auction, which included a donated print from each featured artist.
The digital art exhibit will rotate every three months, with Lisa Smith’s “Into Africa” currently on display until the end of June. Stay tuned for more information on upcoming exhibits!
