Artwatch is a unique and vibrant art event and fundraiser featuring local artists creating 2D & 3D artwork while you watch! White Bear Center for the Arts is transformed into temporary “art studios” where professional artists working live in various media create original works of art available for purchase through a silent or live auction that evening. In addition to the live art and auctions, Artwatch features live music by the 617 House band, hors d’oeuvres & desserts from local restaurants, open bar (wine/beer/soda/coffee), and live art performance. All proceeds from ART WATCH benefit WBCA and a scholarship for the College of Visual Arts, St. Paul.
