BUSINESS
Welcome! We are thrilled to have you here.
COMMUNITY ANGELS
Over the years, many of you have been approached by one charity or another to offer financial help, and most have risen to that challenge. You believe in giving back. You’re community angels…you truly are. We want to streamline that process for you.
ARTPOSSE AND YOU
Saskatoon is infused with tons of creative people. Most work in isolation. Few know they exist.
Most artists/artisans have no idea how to market their creations, or are simply not comfortable dealing with the business end of things.
HOW MUCH DO I CHARGE? WHERE CAN I EXHIBIT? WHAT IF MY ART ISN’T LIKED?
All of these are legitimate questions, but here’s a fantastic bit of news…We can help them, and you.
THE ARTPOSSE – ARTISAN COLLECTIVE HUB
ARTPOSSE is gathering all YXE creative types under one umbrella. A powerful voice results when many become one, a voice united under one banner.
We are gathering YXE artists/artisans to join us. These incredibly talented people craft such art masterpiece as…
- clay sculpture

When you think about art, everything has design it it. That’s art. It’s all around us.
ARTPOSSE AND BUSINESS
We would love for you to connect us. Cutting a cheque for a charity is fantastic, but imagine watching your donations explode during an exciting LIVE ART AUCTION. Not only will it be an evening of food, drink and laughter as we bring our art community together with you, the business community, you get to take home incredible original pieces of an artists Dream. You’re helping our charities continue with their amazing work locally, and local artists grow.
CONNECTIONS
ARTPOSSE has established partnerships with many YXE businesses, BIDS, and Civic groups busy promoting Saskatoon worldwide. These organizations have a strong desire to make our city an outstanding place to live.
Think of the monthly events that happen in YXE. Folkfest, The Hobby Show, The Exhibition…Vesna and Ukrainian Day in the Park, Diwali and of course all the traditional yearly celebrations such as Christmas and Hanukkah. The list goes on and on.
Our First Nation neighbours have a rich history of creative, artistic people. Jingle dresses, and Ribbon skirts, dream catchers and the incredible paintings coming to YXE out of the northern communities is breathtaking. Waneskewin offers a tremendous artisan experience as do other Indigenous communities. Check out a pow wow. Mind blowing.
As a business owner, you not only offer a charity the benefit of your donation, you also rub elbows with the biggest and largest local, provincial, national and international corporations doing the same thing as you…giving back.
