Due to space considerations we are limiting the number of pieces to five (5) chairs, ten (10) paintings / photographs, and five (5) sculptures / pottery. We will contact you within five days of receipt of email with details.
The event is highly publicized throughout the community by radio, newspaper and magazine advertisements thus those donating their art will be exposing their talents to an exceptionally large audience. Additionally, the artist's bio, a link to artists website and photos will be included on the Chair-ity website (www.chair-ity-event.org).
Artists donating art attend the gala event at no cost! November 30th, 5 – 7:30 p.m. for delicious food and refreshments, live music, a silent and live auction, plus plenty of great give-aways!
Background:
The Hollingsworth House and leaders in the community have joined together to host an annual benefit for The Children's Village. Last year local artists painted and decorated chairs to be auctioned. This year the Chair-ity benefit is expanding the offering to incorporate other arts.
