Have admired Joe Average’s art and advocacy since I was a teenager. Lucky to have some of his art. Vancouver has lost a light today. Rest east Joe.

Sad to learn of the passing of celebrated Vancouver artist, activist and community leader Joe Average, CM, OBC (born Brock David Tebbutt). A talented artist, he used his colourful pop art to advocate for people living with HIV. Thank you Joe for all your contributions. RIP ❤️ https://t.co/Rra5zCexwW
