What the Art battle?
First Friday | Notta Art Battle
Once a month, we clear the floor and turn the gallery into an arena. This event is FREE to the public. All ages welcome. Three artists. Two hours. One unforgettable night. From 6–9PM on First Friday, selected artists create brand new work live inside the gallery while a DJ sets the energy and the crowd watches it unfold in real time. This isn’t a quiet show. It’s a collision of creativity. You don’t just view art. You witness it being born.
- Doors open at 6:00PM
- 6:15PM - The floor clears. The clock starts. 2-Hours until completion.
- Three artists. Blank canvases. No safety net. Paint hits surface. Music turns up. The room shifts.
- Move between the artists. Watch decisions being made in real time. Stay for the battle start to finish or watch the moment of impact and come back to see how it all comes together.
- 8:15PM - Brushes down and artists reveal their competed creations. Patrons then have space to ask questions. There will be a final critique and winner announced by an artist guest.
- Throughout the night, patrons collect raffle tickets to enter the live drawing at the conclusion of the event. Raffle tickets are also available online prior to the battle for entry into the next drawing.
- At 9:00PM, one name is drawn for the raffle.
- The winner chooses their favorite finished piece from the battle to take home a custom print of. Not something mass-produced. Something witnessed. Something lived.
