Saturday January 31st, 2009 was the launch party/art show for wallfarmers(dot)ca. Events took place at The Freakin Coffeeshop (Tintown), Courtenay, BC. Artists:: Gillian Brooks, Phresha, Max Kauffman, Mark Stuckert, Gareth Gaudin, Morgen Parkin, Gordon Ross and KOADROCK.

One comment that I heard during the night was 'this show is like Viagra for the Comox Valley art community'.  As strange as it sounds, that was a huge compliment to wallfarmers and the artists involved. Big thanks to you all!

Before the show, it was a busy week of preparation. The framing took place in my living room and I took on any help I could get.

Website Launch Party Featuring contributing artists from wallfarmers(dot)ca


YES...Finally formulated a launch party for this site! I pushed back plans of an art show/launch party to build content, cover art shows and do some marketing. Now that the holidays are over, it feels like the perfect time to gather the artists and let them show off their hard work.

Hey friends... like what we do? Want more artists featured, art shows covered, merchandise offered, then we could sure use a hand.  In turn, we will keep on keepin' on, putting on bigger art shows and digging deeper for more super rad art.

Big ups in advance!
