SILENT AUCTION Art Stars again light up artCentral’s HOLIDAY BOUTIQUE
 ANDY THOMAS | 2018 | Owl on a Snowy Day | Again this year one by one the artist created and donated 5x7 canvases are coming in for artCentral’s HOLIDAY BOUTIQUE SILENT AUCTION served up with an array of delectables for your nibbling pleasure. Oh my! Oh my! These more than four dozen creations are more amazing and whimsical, beautiful and fun than ever before! I am over the moon with delight! I love them—every single one that I’ve already seen and held and relished and still there are more on the way. I await their arrival with my heart aflutter with anticipation and my head spinning with artCentral’s good fortune. The 5x7 SILENT AUCTION is a Christmas miracle happening for the benefit of our unique non-profit arts organization and our mission to promote, exhibit, teach and foster the appreciation of fine arts in our community. I’m blissed with the unselfish generosity of our accomplished artist |
contributors, for all Silent Auction proceeds raised by these artists will go toward artCentral’s work and programming on behalf of art and artists throughout southwest Missouri.
Don’t miss this once-a-year opportunity to select fine art and support the arts and artists. Bid (starting as low as $5), purchase and take home one or more of these truly amazing artworks from the hands of artCentral’s awesomely talented artists—our marvelous constellation that includes international art stars, regional luminaries and emerging artists just beginning to twinkle. Each of these artists is shining at their very best through their SILENT AUCTION gems.
Even mega star Andy Thomas is making the time to contribute a SILENT AUCTION treasure. What is he painting this year? I’m eager to discover! Three years ago his donated canvas depicted the passion of a rising up stallion. The next Auction his canvas brought us the image of the jolliest Santa I’ve ever seen. Last year his richly rendered "Owl on a Snowy Day" garnered a stunning take home bid. For each of his small works the bidding has been vigorous, and artCentral has been made sustainably stronger by the dollars Andy brought in to support our work.
Thank you! goes out to all our artCentral artists who are stepping up to make this year’s SILENT AUCTION the best ever. Joplin artist rock stars Andrew Batcheller, Karolee Blanchard, April Davis-Brunner, Jesse McCormick, Connie Miller, Margie Moss, Jo Mueller, Debbie Reed and Linda Teeter and the ever popular Cheryl Church, Jerry Ellis, Sarah Huntley, Tom Jones, Helen Kunze and Lora Waring of Carthage are contributing, as well as newly emerging artCentral members Aurelia Burr, Nancy Dymott and Bonnie Young. Members of artCentral’s board of directors, Jane Ballard and Jason Shelfer, are again signed up to share their talents. JRAC president Emily Rose is adding hers, too. Of course both my husband David and I will have our own small works among the others.
