Weaving Giving Communities With Art Venues

There are many resources for 
Businesses & The Arts
I want to suggest an equally important method of collusion by setting the stage for Fund-Raising in an Arts Venue.

Giving requires imagination, purpose in life & the ability to function at a level that goes beyond our own immediate needs.

What better place that a location that already features the human imagination, creative beauty & the need to communicate with others?

The Sewell Gallery is offering its space for the Salvation Army to feature its upcoming Red Kettle Fund Raising Event in Eureka, CA. There will be a portrait artist to accept commissions, part of those final payments to be donated, a Guest Speaker to welcome the guests & give a brief history of the Salvation Army, & an auction for a piece of art that had been donated for the purposes of Public Relations. This is an excellent opportunity to make comfortable some members of the public who may not otherwise visit an art gallery, & give exposure to the local artists currently showing their work.

Bringing Art To The Masses...Everyone Benefits

Featuring intended collisions of high fashion with high art, 
Sarah Jones writes about this phenomena in 
LUXURY DAILY Oct. 3, 2014 issue.


"Sotheby's Day Sales are organized by contemporary art specialists, who pick out pieces from both established and up-and-coming artists. Price points for work range from a few thousand to $4 million...Sotheby's has joined forces with online auctioneer eBay to develop a digital platform that enables customers to easily browse artwork, antiques and collectibles.

Bergdorf Goodman has previously used its windows to connect itself to the art world."

For centuries there have been discussions about the issue of exposing mass populations to the fine arts. The disparity of income, opportunity, education & psychology of this topic has been explored only to have it be determined, everyone benefits.

ANARCHY AND BEAUTY: William Morris and His Legacy, 1860-1960 runs October through January, 2015 at the National Portrait Gallery, London. This includes study of WE SIT STARVING AMIDST OUR GOLD Mural which focuses on the socialist values of Morris.
