Dear Fleisher, the biennial fundraiser for Fleisher Art Memorial, takes place today at 1:00 PM. All the art is 4×6″ (roughly) and there are a handful of 3D objects as well as works on paper. Everything is anonymous, all the works numbered so you have to go with your knowledge base or your gut in picking what you want. As in other years, there are some really great gems, and everything goes for $50, first-come, first served. Cash and carry, so get there early. Also, it usually gets crowded so be prepared to dodge and weave. A $5 contribution at the door is suggested and there will be refreshments. Here are a few samples of what I saw yesterday at the preview. More photos at my flickr.

Lovely ink drawing - School of Jane Irish?

You are most certainly correct with mine.
Hi Tim, it was great to see that little gem on the wall and speculate that it was yours. Thanks for confirming!
Mia Rosenthal rules!
