Over 40 artists are donating artwork to raise funds to support the Venice Art Walls program. Faced with potential budget cuts from government sponsors, the organization that curates the walls are in dire straits.
ICU Art and its allies are having this benefit art auction to keep the program alive until they can secure more substantial long-term funding through grants or other sources.
The majority of the artwork will be sold in a silent auction with a few important works being auctioned in the live auction. They will also have a raffle for goods and services that are being donated by businesses and individuals. Tickets will be sold in advance as well as at the door the night of the event. Please come out and support the Venice Art Walls – an important cultural historic landmark and a Venice art resource.
