Artist Trust Auction selection...

Every year I try for this Artist Trust fundraiser - odd to compete to give away a piece of art... but its a very worthy cause for sure.

Dear Ellen,


We would like to thank you for your generosity in submitting images for the 2010 Artist Trust Benefit Art Auction. The auction art selection panel, made up of local curators, gallery owners, working artists, and collectors functioning independently of the Artist Trust staff, met this week to look over submitted images. Our list of artists has grown to 1,400, but we only have space for 180 pieces of art. This makes it a competitive process to donate. Unfortunately, your work was not selected by the panel for the upcoming auction on February 20, 2010.

I encourage you to either apply next year or perhaps join the auction in other ways. We depend on our artists and a variety of volunteers to make this event a success. If you are interested in volunteering or attending the auction, please contact me. We would love to have your involvement.


Sincerely,


Lele  Barnett
