Currys will be holding a Charitable Art Auction in October.

This fall, we are holding an Art Auction to showcase inspiring Canadian artistic talent and at the same time, help raise awareness and funds for Dystonia, a neurological movement disorder. Dystonia has affected a signifigant number of musicians & artists, making it a cause close to our hearts.

Three methods are being planned including a live auction, silent auction and an online sale. They are accepting all styles of drawing, painting and printmaking.
