I am beyond thrilled to announce that the remaining available pieces from my Industrial Captivation collection can now be purchased through the Art Gallery of Hamilton! It means everything that the industrial scenes regularly seen here in Hamilton are being represented and sold here in Hamilton, where these is much appreciation for our industrial landscape. Here’s the link to all the images and information:
It seems April is THE month for online auctions! With the pandemic still raging, fundraising by means of art auctions has been relegated to virtual online auctions… and what a better way to Spring-vigorate your space and help out a worthy cause! It’s also an excellent opportunity to get a great deal on an Amy Ferrari Art original since the reserve prices are set well below usual retail prices!
I am participating 3 separate online auctions, so I wanted to sort it all out for you, since it can get confusing. Below, I have information on all 3 auctions, the links to registration information, and images of the paintings I’m offering.

I am so pleased to announce that I’ll be one of the participating artists in “Fresh Air Fresh Art, an Art Show and Sale coming up soon in Ariss, Ontario!
Stay tuned for the images of artworks I’ll be offering for sale!
What a busy Fall! With the glow of success from my most recent event, The Ferrari 500 at the Communitech’s Hub (We raised over $500.00 for The Working Centre in Kitchener!!!), starting to fade; it’s now time to gear up for another important art show!
This upcoming show is going to be HUGE for the local visual arts community!
Art$Pay is a local non profit that connects visual art practitioners with opportunities, community, and advocates for fair pay.
The folks at Art$Pay are, seguing from the area’s well-know “Box” show, which has a proven track record (from 2009 to 2013) as a very successful two-day art event and sale! The new “Out of the Box” show and sale will be held at The Walper Hotel in Downtown Kitchener on November 10 and 11. With the art of 50 regional visual artists, the music of Cuneyt Juneyt Yetkiner, and 2 free public art talks, it surely going to be an event you won’t want to miss!
This 2-Day event is so special, you’re going to need tickets purchased in advance in order to be sure to attend! For all the nifty show details – and tickets – follow this link to the Art$Pay’s Walper Show event page.
I am Super-Happy to be included is this upcoming show at the Walper Hotel!!!
Here’s a Sneak Peek at the Art I’ll be offering November 10th and 11th….
All of the imagery from this collection comes from my countless drives through our region’s countryside!
Does the fear of the number 13 affect you?? Hopefully not!
The Ferrari 500 is an art show popping up this coming Friday the 13 – and it’s less than 2 weeks away! The only scary part is the possibility that you’ll miss out and forget to come… so mark your calendars!
It’s really nothing to be scared of – especially since it’s going to be sooooo much fun and a feast for the eyes!
• 17 very friendly, approachable, and un-scary local artists will in be attendance, showing their awesome original art, and they all will be more than happy to answer any questions you might have.

Believe! Believe in the power and luck of the number 13, and you could be coming home with a wonderful door prize! Believe!
• Making our community a bit stronger is surely a non-scary and joyful thing to do… Did you know that 10% of any purchase you make will be donated by the artist to The Working Centre, a Kitchener institution that is making a difference in our community!
• A New Signature Cocktail: The Formula One! This pineapple juice and moonshine concoction was crafted by Terry Gibson of Moondance Whiskeys, our event’s provider of spirits! No, not the scary kind of spirits… it’s OK! In additional to the tasty Formula One, Terry with be serving up his special selections of wine and beer.
Developed with rising star Ben Murphy of Murphy’s Law Distillery, Elmira, Ontario, Moondance is a double distilled, triple charcoal filtered corn mash spirit, historically known as Moonshine, the first offering of its type made in Canada using traditional recipes originating from 17th Century Midlands England and further refined in the Hills of West Virginia, USA.
• Yummy Snacks!
Our 17 artists will also be providing their own signature snacks for the evening. How can that be scary?! Nom nom nom!
Friday the 13th? It’s really a luckyday, with the power to change your life.
Just imagine, you come out to our event in the energizing space of Communitech’s Area 151 Hub, make some new friends with artists, fall in love with a painting, and by purchasing it, you strengthen a worthy community organization (The Working Centre), and bring some visual joy to your home – very lucky indeed!!!

Art makes a wonderful Easter gift too – we have a whole wall of smaller pieces that will fit into your Easter basket… and Woo Hoo!…. no calories!
WOW!!! The Ferrari 500’s Debut Exhibition was a fantastic success!
We had roughly 200 art lovers come through to check out art by 12 artists, and they came with buying art in mind! In a single 5 hour period, $6,000+ of art was sold!
I think we’ve proven the concept: A price point of $500.00 as a maximum for an art show really does have power to bring in buyers. Affordable Excellence.
Our community non-profit beneficiary, Button Factory Arts (our Waterloo community arts hub), will receive 10%, which will be $600+, plus the proceeds from some donated artwork. Yay!
So, I’m sending a big THANK-YOU! to all who came out, who purchased art, and who helped make this event a reality!
I didn’t do this show all on my own, as the participating artists pitched in greatly with graphic design services, promotional expertise, and much more.
So, after a rest, it’ll be time to start gearing up for the 2nd rendition, Mach 2. 😊
The Slide Show Below gives you a peek at what I’ll be offering at Friday’s Ferrari 500.
Eleven other local artists will be showing their amazing work as well. We’ll all be donating 10% of the proceeds from every sale to Button Factory Arts.
Every single piece is priced at $500.00 or UNDER!
Hope to see you there!
Friday Evening, February 24, 4:00pm to 9:00pm at Button Factory Arts
