The Gabriola Arts Council’s ARTY Award goes to an individual or an organization on Gabriola or Mudge Islands who has made an outstanding contribution to the arts on our islands in the year prior – 2025 in this case.

For yet the 16^th year in a row, we are asking the Gabriola/Mudge community to nominate someone or a group who did just that in the calendar year of 2025.

Nominations are now closed. Thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate a deserving artist. 

Please join us at the Gabriola Arts & Heritage Centre, 476 South Road, on March 25 2026 for our 2025 AGM when this year’s 16th recipient will be presented with the coveted and much loved ARTY Award trophy and the $500 award provided by the Kasahara Gabriola Trust.
