Put it on your calendar. Support Obama at this Park Slope benefit for change. Buy some art in the process; have a great time.
Art Obama is the brainchild of a committee of smart, creative Park Slopers, who are mad as hell and can’t take what’s happening to this country anymore. So they got organized out of frustration and passion and put together this home-grown effort to raise money. Lucky thing they know a lot of New York artists, who were willing donate some terrific art.
On October 3, there will be a silent auction of over 100 small works by American artists to support the election of Barack Obama and down-ticket Democrats.
Proceeds benefit the Obama Victory Fund. Donations also accepted for ActBlue , a clearinghouse supporting progressive House and Senate candidates nationwide. Space is limited, and pre-registration for this event is strongly recommended.
The Where and When:
Friday, October 3, 2008
Silent Auction 7 to 10 pm (bidding 7-9). $25 at the door
62 Eighteenth Street, Brooklyn NY, 5th Floor
I have just updated my site to include my most recent work, “Words of Hope.” If you have a moment, please check it out at: http://www.PAPERtoCANVAS.com/OBAMA
Since February, I’ve collected articles from TIME Magazine focusing on this amazing campaign. During the lengthy process of cutting and tearing pages, I’ve become further inspired by the words I’ve read and I want to do more. So for the first time, I’m selling prints directly from my website with 10% of proceeds proudly donated to Obama for America.
Thank you for your time and support and I hope you enjoy the art. And remember to VOTE!
Best ~ Seth
