If you’re an art aficionado, you’re likely getting pretty excited for the upcoming International Artist Day, happening on October 25. This day offers a chance to celebrate established and up-and-coming creatives.

Even if you know nothing about art — perhaps especially if you know nothing about art — I’ve got the inside scoop on a fun little event where you can speak to a real art expert and have all your questions answered. If you’ve ever wondered how to incorporate art into your home’s interior, or curate your own gallery wall at home — a HUGE trend — now is your chance to learn.

On October 25, internationally-famed art curator and Canada’s IT art girl, Elena Soboleva will be at Bombay Sapphire’s Artisan Series Toronto final — and you’re invited to the party! Elena has curated major art projects for global brands including Gucci, UBS, Microsoft, and Snapchat. Recently, she partnered with Bombay Sapphire Artisan Series to help expand Canadians’ knowledge of art and encourage emerging artists to participate in art competitions.

Get a chance to meet Elena, sip gin-infused cocktails, and revel in the art of 19 of Toronto’s best emerging artists, as chosen by Artsy! Details below.
