CAMBRIDGE ART ASSOCIATION ANNUAL CELEBRATION - April 12, 2014
We know this is a busy time of year, and there are lots of amazing events next Saturday night, April 12th. So I would like to thank you, in advance, for spending your night supporting the Cambridge Art Association at our Annual Gala, now at Arlington Town Hall!
In addition to delicious comestibles from Miss Jeanie's, an open wine and beer bar, and entertainment from the Egg Rock Quartet, we have some truly fantastic auction items lined up - including a behind the scenes tour of Worcester Art Museum with our National Prize Show Juror, and Director Emeritus at WAM, Dr. James Welu.
It's a once in a lifetime chance to check out the newly opened arms and armor collection acquired from the Higgins Armory, and learn about the museum from the man who knows it best!
Other exciting items include:
Getaways in the Berkshires, Vermont, and on Lake Winnipesaukee
A case of Veuve Clicquot to celebrate your next milestone
A one of a kind silver plate print of Maud Morgan, by well known local photographer Michael Silve (his work appears in the collections of the Harvard Art Museums)
Tickets to see your World Champion Red Sox
And many other chances to wine & dine, learn a new skill, and jump start your art collection!
Every dollar raised on April 12th goes toward funding:
Our Exhibition Program providing 20 opportunities each year for local artists to display their artwork
Our Creativity Lab an outreach initiative supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, Cambridge Arts Council, and Cambridge Community Foundation, that provides out of school time visual arts instruction and an exhibition opportunity for Cambridge Youth
Our Scholarship Fund which provides membership dues and entry fee waivers for up to 10 artists per year, as well as a college scholarship for a graduating Cambridge Rindge and Latin student.
Over the past 10 years, we've raised over $300,000 to support Cambridge Art Association programs at this festive event! I hope you will join us this year, and help to launch our CAA at 70 Campaign, celebrating the amazing artists and supporters we have been so lucky to have over the course of the past 70 years!
Already purchased your tickets? THANK YOU!
And if you have not, I hope you will purchase your ticket today, either online, or over the phone (617-876-0246) and support the next 70 years at the Cambridge Art Association.
I look forward to seeing your on April 12th!
