Even 2020 can’t stop my two favorite Richmond art events!

First off, we have the third installment of the Bling It Out Biennial at Iridian Gallery. This time around I made a piece out of books from Diversity Thrift. The auction begins Dec 10 at 6pm, when the exhibition opens to the public and goes live on Instagram. Bidding continues online until Dec 17 at 12pm EST and need to be made in multiples of $10. Identical bids will favor the one that is timestamped earlier.

Second, it’s 1708’s Monster Drawing Rally from home. On Saturday, December 12th, “drawings” will be posted in batches on Instagram every 5 minutes from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. Buyers will purchase directly from 1708's online store. “Drawings” will be sold to the first buyer to put the it in their cart and make a purchase. All drawings are $100; artists will receive a 50% commission. I have two pieces in this one.

Get yourself some art and support nonprofit art spaces while your at it!
