CHARITY AUCTION IN AID OF THE WEST END FOOD BANK,APRIL 19TH 2018
As some of you may know the gallery has been involved in supporting the NUFC Fans Food Bank to raise money and awareness for the Newcastle West End Food Bank. The West End Food Bank is the largest in the UK and in this day and age we have been shocked to see that their is such a demand and need for its existence. The recent severe weather has made fundraising even more critical.
So we have decided to make The West End Food Bank our Charity of the Year and we are proposing to hold a Postcard Auction on April 19th to raise much needed funds, but we need your help to pull it off...
Do you know[or are you !!] any Artists/ ''Famous Northerners'' that you could persuade to draw us a quick painting to auction for such a good cause?
By famous this could mean a footballer/tv personality/geordie shore ''star' or one of the ''Art House''artists,. Our gallery artists are already preparing us some 6'' x 6'' paintings on Board/Mount Board to be put into the auction.
Any postcards which must be 6'' x6'' [and rigid, to allow us to display them standing up in display cases] need to be with us at the latest by March 26th to enable us to get them displayed and allow customers to view/bid on them. Bids will be also allowed on line at www.northeastartcollective.co.uk
Your help would be very much appreciated.
All donations are very much welcome.
