This Saturday July 17th I'll be participating in the Art Factory's Art-A-Thon from 6pm to 6am. The event features local artists who will come together for an evening of creativity. Since I'm participating it's required for me to secure pledges for the evening and if you wish to support the artist community please pledge money for the hours that I paint or a flat rate. The highest bidder will receive the painting that I'm working on for the night or your painting of choice equal or lesser value to the one being painted. Since I'm volunteering 12 hours of my time and a painting it would be great to get as many pledges as possible. The money will go toward new studio space in the art factory and give more artistic opportunities for the creative people of Springfield.
The public is invited to the Art Factory to watch the event and photos will be routinely updated on the website for the internet audience. The work that is done on Saturday will also be featured @ the lemondrop gallery for the August Friday Artwalk!
You can pledge directly to me or also pledge via e-mail at pledge@artfactory417.org
