'It's fantastic': Driftwood art show raises more than $10K for Victoria's Wild ARC
Posted: Apr. 30, 2023 2:57PMDriftwood artist Tanya Bub and Senior Manager of Wild ARC Breanne Beckett are thrilled $10,945 was raised for animal rehabilitation during a recent art show in Victoria.
Wild ARC is a Metchosin-based rehabilitation centre that helps sick, injured and orphaned wild animals — so it’s only fitting the show’s theme was B.C. wildlife. “I’ve been doing driftwood sculptures for about four years now. I just got back into it fairly recently, and now, I’m pretty much doing it full-time. It’s my passion, my job, and my hobby all bundled up into one,” exclaimed Bub, who’s often commissioned for her work.
“They did one of their broadcasts from the gallery, and I can’t tell you how many people came in and said they saw the show,” she said. “I can’t thank them enough. It wouldn’t have been the same without them.”
