The GALLERY GALA returns!
framed! is the fifteenth Gallery Gala exhibition, and will open to the public on Saturday, 5 June 2010 in the West Wing Galleries. It presents the work of 53 regional artists in a hybrid museum / gallery atmosphere. That is, unlike in all other Arnot shows, these works will be available for sale to Museum visitors!
The first two weeks of the show present preview possibilities for the public; savvy buyers visit the galleries and plan their strategies for purchases.
And then … on 18 June, the public is invited to an exciting and fun evening of (as the invitation says) “fine art, elegant food and drink, and bare-knuckled bidding wars!” The exhibition will continue through 9 July, after which the works will be delivered to winning buyers. Over 140 works, ranging in price from $50 to several thousand dollars, will be exhibited.
Tickets to the event, which is chaired by Susan Chalmers and AJ Fratarcangelo, are $40 per person ($35 for Museum members). Wine and beer will be served, with hors d’oeuvres and desserts by Global Gourmet. Bidding will begin at 6:30, and the gavel will come down on sold works by 9pm.
For reservations or more information, contact the Museum Guest Services Desk at 607.734.3697.
