Art Battle Victoria - August 21, 2026

Art Battle is live, competitive painting like you’ve never seen before. In three fast-paced rounds, artists battle the clock and each other to create their best work in just 20 minutes.

As they paint, you’ll move around the easels, witnessing the creative process up close. Grab a beverage, cast your vote to help decide the winner, and bid in a silent auction to take your favourite piece home.

This event takes place on the lands of the lək̓ʷəŋən (Lekwungen) Peoples, known today as the Songhees Nation and Esquimalt (Kosapsum) Nation.

Territorial acknowledgments are only a small step in the broader work of dismantling colonial systems that continue to impact Indigenous communities. We invite guests to move beyond acknowledgment by engaging in self-education and redistributing resources.
