“If art is a journey, the gallery is the ship.” *
The Prichard Art Gallery Benefit Exhibition will come to a close Saturday night, February 8th, with a live auction that begins at 7:00 pm. As a contributing artist, I appreciate how the Prichard manages their benefit exhibits:
-
artists are allowed to set a minimum price for their work
-
artists have the option of contributing 50%-100% of a sale to the gallery
-
prior to the auction, the exhibition is free and open to the public
It’s always an honor to be invited to contribute your work to an art auction, but I am not inclined to participate without the stipulations listed above. They indicate respect for the artists and their work, while offering some level of access to all community members.
Tickets for the live auction are $15, and available at the Prichard, One World Cafe, and Book People.

I have two charcoal drawings and a “moon” print in the auction. You can view all available work at the Online Auction Gallery.
