To celebrate Meridian Art Week, Idaho Art Gallery is hosting an inclusive, community-centered, Quick Draw event that celebrates creativity, engages local artists of all skill levels, and highlights the vibrancy of downtown Meridian.

What is a Quick Draw?

A Quick Draw is a live art-making experience where artists create original works within a set time while the public watches. The finished pieces are offered for sale throughout the duration of the event, making it an exciting and fast-paced celebration of creativity.

For Artists:
Participating artists will have 90 minutes to complete an original work of art live in front of an audience. All artwork will be available for sale throughout the event, and each piece will be juried for a chance to win a $1,000 cash grand prize. There is a $20 registration fee to participate. Space is limited, so register soon at idahoartgallery.com/quick-draw .

For the Public:
The Quick Draw begins at 6:00 PM, kicking off a 90-minute live art-making session where guests can watch creativity unfold in real time. Artworks will be available for purchase as they’re created, making it an exciting opportunity to collect fresh work from local talent. Enjoy food and drinks from neighboring businesses and experience downtown Meridian’s creative energy firsthand.
