From Raw Art Works: Instead of “Partying with a Purpose” at BASH, we’re giving our dancing shoes a break. This year, support RAW through a curated, month-long campaign with opportunities to Sponsor an Artist, attend our annual Exhibit Opening + Block Party on May 28th from 5-8pm, and RAW’s virtual Silent Auction.
The Silent Auction is now live and closes on Monday, June 1st.
This incredible body of work features masterpieces by RAW alumni, staff, collaborating artists, and Artists-in-Residence Koforowola Adebiyi and Jah’Nyah Spencer. All of the proceeds from the auction go to supporting our mission to ignite the desire to create and confidence to succeed in our youth. You can see the art live and in-person at our Exhibit Opening + Block Party.
Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of RAW history!
Lastly, RAW is also offering the opportunity for the community to sponsor an artist. There are multiple levels available to choose from, starting at $500. There are multiple projects this effort will fund such as materials for an elementary group for 1 years, sponsoring a public art project, and employing a RAW teen for 1 years.
Editor’s note: Please watch for an interview with RAW about their upcoming events to be posted this Friday
Below is a sample of some of the artwork that is part of the auction, provided by Raw Art Works.
