Engineers Without Borders Art Auction
The UMCP chapter of Engineers Without Borders will be having an art auction fundraiser tomorrow night at the Leland Community Center in Bethesda. I went to high school with Xiah Kragie, who's worked her tush off on this thing, and if people could come, that would be fantastic. There will be food and music, plus lots and lots of art. Plus, I'm told, hot science college chicks. And maybe me.
Artists, unless otherwise noted, get 25% of the proceeds, and the other 75% is tax deductable.
The art:
"The Tee Shirt"
8"x12" image, matted and framed to be 16"x20"
Acid free white mat, black wood box frame
Starting bid: $150
Note: This was my first really good photo, the one that made me think I might actually be decent at taking pictures
"Hand"
8"x12" image, matted and framed to be 16"x20"
Acid free white mat, black wood box frame
Starting bid: $150
Note: Won "Best in Show" at the 2005 National Juried Show at the Washington Gallery of Photography, juried my Michael Cunningham (photographer who did the "Crowns" series, the photos of African-American women in their hats)
"Meredith with Blanket"
8"x12" image, matted and framed to be 16"x20"
Acid free white mat, black wood box frame
Starting bid: $150
Note: Won "Honorable Mention" at the 2005 National Juried Show at the Washington Gallery of Photography, juried my Michael Cunningham (photographer who did the "Crowns" series, the photos of African-American women in their hats)
"Her Eye" and "Her Neck" (sold as a set)
8"x12" images, matted and framed to be 11"x14" each
Acid free white mat, black wood box frame
Starting bid: $200 for the set
Note: "Her Eye" was featured in the 3rd Annual International Photography Competition at the Fraser Gallery.
Lenny Campello will also have a large painting there, so if you're not a fan of my work, at least go to see his.
The skinny:

What: Engineers Without Borders Art Auction Fundraiser
Where: Leland Community Center, Bethesda (at the end of the street next to that women's farmer's market on Wisc. Ave.)

Why: Cool art, low prices, and 75% of the proceeds go towards rebuilding communities in third-world countries.
Artists, unless otherwise noted, get 25% of the proceeds, and the other 75% is tax deductable.
