Absolut Vancouver


We are thrilled to announce that Braden Hammond is one of 5 artists selected to compete in Absolut Vodka's "Absolut Vancouver" competition. "Absolut Vancouver" challenges Vancouver artists to propose an idea that is deserving of a grant for an installment slated to go up in Gastown. Absolut plans to use the proceeds of sales from their Absolut Vancouver limited edition bottle to offer up to $120,000 for the artists to make their vision real.

Our theme is "Absolut City of Glass" and it only takes one look at the city skyline to know why Vancouver has been called this already. View Finalist Proposals.
