🎨🐝 CALGARY ARTISTS & CREATORS: The Canvas is Ready & The Prizes are HUGE! 🐝🎨
Registration is OPEN NOW for the 2nd Annual Brisebois Bees Art Box Exhibition Contest, and this year, the community has stepped up in a massive way!
We started right here in Brentwood in 2015 with just one nuc. Today, we manage over 70 honey bee colonies across the Calgary area, and we want YOU to help us house them.
WE PROVIDE THE CANVAS: You get an assembled, white-primed deep Langstroth super (a real beehive box) to turn into a masterpiece. Once the contest is over, your art becomes a working home for thousands of honey bees in our city apiaries! 🍯🌻
