Aanii, tansi, hello folks!
We are hosting a small art show and silent auction with all profits going to various organizations and fundraisers for Palestinians. Free entry!
The auction will be available online - check back here for the link later.
Doors will be open to the public for advanced viewing at our studio shop in Ottawa, Ontario on Saturday, September 20th from 1-4pm.
The auction itself will be held Tuesday, September 23rd. Online bidding will open at 8am ET and close at 8pm. Drop-in and auction finale in-person will be from 6-8pm at our studio shop in Ottawa.
The address is 145 Spruce St W, Unit 102.
At our drop-in you can expect a small choice of coffee, tea, etc., and baked goods to be available for purchase.
This past summer we placed a call for artists and makers to donate their pieces to this auction, and some very beautiful contributions were made. We are eternally grateful.
There is a variety of different things to choose from - jewelry, visual art, textile art, accessories.
Our featured piece is an original Christi Belcourt painting titled "Let There Be Peace". Christi will be here at the drop-in on Tuesday the 23rd.
Depending on the amount we raise, all proceeds will be going to some or all of these listed orgs/fundraisers for Palestinians below. Once the auction is over we will share the amounts donated!
