Postcards for Lindsay: February 2008
Throughout the month of February, Corporate & Museum Frame at 301 West Broad Street hosted a very special art exhibit and sale titled Postcards for Lindsay. Local (and not so local) artists donated small framed and unframed pieces: some were existing pieces, others were created specially for the event. Prints, paintings, drawings, photography, collage: original works by both well-knowns and unknowns sold for $25, $35, $50, $100 and $150 depending on size and medium.
Every buyer received a wonderful work of art at a remarkable price; some made surprisingly valuable purchases. But each sale was worth far more than simply the value of the art itself, as 100% of the over $17,000 in proceeds will go to help Lindsay and her family.
We would like to extend a special thank you to Corporate & Museum Frame for offering to host the event, and for all the time and energy Anahita, Joseph and staff dedicated to making this such a success. We’d also like to thank the volunteers and friends of Lindsay who helped out on the opening nights: it was frantically busy, and it could not have been done without them.
Most of all, we’d like to thank the artists who so generously donated their work, and all of you who came and bought. Your donations and your purchases have truly made a positive difference for Lindsay and her family. Thank you for your kindness.
