ABSOLUT Vancouver Art
byBack in November I was at the launch of the ABSOLUT Vodka Vancouver-themed bottle. Aside from featuring a logo created by a BC artist, a portion of sales from each bottle are also going to fund a public art project in the city.
Over the last few months the public have been voting on their favourite project proposal and the five finalists have been announced.

Visit the ABSOLUT Vancouver Art contest page to view all the entries and vote on the one you would most like to see in our city. Voting is open until March 16th, 2010 (limit 1 vote per person/email address during the voting period). The winner will have $120,000 to then fund their art project courtesy of ABSOLUT Vodka.

Hey Miss604! Thank you for blogging about the Absolut project. I want to give you a new link to our project website… http://www.AnimateVancouver.com where we have started our framework for the project we will complete with (or without) with Absolut funding.
Also a cool clip we got on TourismVancouver.com as a spinoff of being selected as finalist in AbsolutVancouver
