Unart Uncommons
For nearly a decade now, a gathering of artists has been taking place in Edmonton each Saturday, their collective presence standing as a testament to their seasoned experience and artistic maturity.

Bound together by a shared love for unabashed artistic expression, they convene in local cafés, where tables are pushed together, transforming the space into a hub of creative energy.
