Last night was the Mardi Gras bash for From the Art of New York, an art auction to benefit the Gulf Coast.
It was a lovely event. Great people, great food. And hopefully, great fundraising. Above, just a few pics, which will have to stand in for words. As I'm feeling a bit speechless today.
The website seems already to have been taken off line, which seems odd to me. But I guess these things are over when they are over. (ADDENDUM: The website is still up; must have had some technical difficulty on one end or the other. Google, From the Art of New York - I'm blogging from work and can't make links from the Mac.)
I don't believe my work got any bids unfortunately, but I heard that Cue, the art gallery and foundation, would be creating some kind of permanent exhibition for whatever work had not sold, in hopes of continuing attention and fundraising.
