The exhibit, which will be the largest and the first solo exhibition of Bob Ross's work in Canada, will run in the main gallery from March 21 to May 10, 2020.
"We are planning some amazing programming and events around this exhibition including a Bob Ross Art Battle at Slackwater Brewing in April, a giant paint-in, and a dance party where you can dress up as your favourite happy little character," exhibition organizers said in a press release.
A designated sponsorship wall will be going up in the gallery entrance and the gallery is inviting individuals and businesses to buy a happy little square to support its children’s programming.
