Raw Canvas is a social lounge, gallery, cafe and paint studio in the heart of Yaletown that will play host to a unique charity event on September 24.  Will Paint for Food will raise funds for the Niapele Project, a charity which feeds Liberian children through the School Nutrition Initiative.

Three 1-hour painting sessions will be held on the evening of September 24, with each session accommodating up to 20 participants.  Resident and guest painters of Raw Canvas will be on hand to help you flex those artistic muscles, and your ticket to the event not only buys you a canvas and raffle tickets, but will also provide 495 meals for Liberian children.

There are numerous ways for you to get involved.  If you are an artist, Raw Canvas is looking for guest painters who help instruct session participants.  If you have product that could be raffled off, you could donate an item.  Or you can buy a ticket and have fun painting for an hour or so!
