Okay, so we are in no way ready to handle a project like this, but we are going to try.
This is the New New News. We want to do our part to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina, in both Louisiana and Mississippi. We are joining in to support and to help facilitate a fundraising art auction that is the brain child of artist Terry Gardiner.
Our friend, artist Carole Orr has kindly offered her help and our first Artist in Residence Diego Marcial Rios has offered to donate a piece. Future Artist in Residence (we hope) Chris Fabbri, has gathered several artist friends and with them, is making some of his own work available for the auction.
We've never done anything like this before...but if there was ever a time to rise to the occasion, it's now. And you know me...I've always been more of a if-all-else-fails-read-the-directions kind of girl.
More tomorrow.
