Arts Exposure

ART FOR GRABS
Now everyone can afford art!Artists want the masses. The masses want art. The Annexe wants everyone happy.
So, in November last year, The Annexe held its inaugural Art For Grabs. With everything capped at RM100, we managed to prove that art doesn't have to be elitist or expensive. Everyone was soon asking when the next one will be. Well, it is back. This time, bigger and crazier!
We have filled up two galleries leaving the third for workshops and showcases. We also have the lofts filled with a café, the studios with activist activities and alternative books. Not forgetting two rock fests on both days of this rocking weekend.
