A Child Becomes Art Auction!
Saturday, March 10th, 2012
Duwamish Longhouse ** 4705 W. Marginal Way SW
A Child Becomes Preschool is holding its first ever fundraiser! We will showcase both individual and collaborative art made by our students as well as art donated by local and semi-local professional artists.
The school is a gem and provides a wonderful, well rounded curriculum for the kids including art education, they learn about Jackson Pollock, Kandinsky’s concentric circles and come home talking about Pointillism and Seurat! The art auction is a great way to pay tribute to the school’s philosophy, to raise money for needed playground improvements and to help build the scholarship fund. The school is currently sponsoring several students, but can no longer afford to do this without help! School parents and volunteers have come together to form this exciting fundraiser!
To make this event successful, we need art, beautiful art and artful experiences!
All donations are tax deductible. Click here for more information on donating.

About the medium, oil paint – I like the creamy color intense luscious look of oil paint. I like making brushstrokes [...]
