HANDLE WITH CARE: Annual VASA Art Auction

Friday November 10, 2023
FAB Gallery

Hours:

11 a.m.-2 p.m. & 4-8 p.m.

You're invited to the VASA (Visual Arts Student Association) Annual Art Auction! In every part of the art making process, there is care and intention, whether in the hours of work or the careful choice of materials. This labor can often be missed or overlooked in the sea of mass produced art objects. The rise of same day shipping has exacerbated this, fundamentally changing our relationship with art. In this auction, we invite you to see the work of young artists, to support art being made within your own community and to appreciate the entire process from sketch to packaging. Join us as we implore you; the collector, the viewer, the friends and family of artists, to handle our work with care.
