Jeff Winkowski asked if I would want to take part in a benefit to raise money for the Bay View Community Center‘s food pantry program and I said “I’m in!” so join us Saturday, April 6th, 2024 at Puddler’s Hall from 6pm to 10pm. (See the Facebook Event!)
And what’s happening? It’s an Art Show (and Sale) and I will be offering a bunch of my recent digital illustrations (well, prints of them) as well as some of the relief prints I made in January.
This is another Pay What You Want experiment on my part, and I will be donating 50% of all sales to the Bay View Community Center. Get one of my prints for $5 and the BVCC gets $2.50… Give me $50 for a print and the BVCC gets $25. We’re going to work together on this, providing art to people at a price they can afford, and hopefully also raising some money for those in need. (Fun Fact: I used to live right down the street from the Bay View Community Center and passed it every day on the way to work.)
There’s also a silent auction planned that will feature a never-before-seen illustration I’ve done. It’s a classic Milwaukee historical thing, and you might like it. Oh, there will probably also be some music or other things happening… a live band? A local DJ? I don’t even know. (Literally, things are still in the works.)
Oh, there is an entry fee! It’s one non-perishable food item. So canned goods or the like, something you would donate to a food pantry. Anyway, I hope you can join us. (And bring some cash or a card or your phone or all of those things!)
