A Tradition with a Twist A Fundraiser with Quirky and Classic Art This year, we’re adding new twist to our traditional Art for $100 fundraiser. Alongside the classic collection of original artworks donated by our generous patrons, IOWAL artists will take outdated, faded works of art and give them a modern makeover. Whether it's a faded landscape turned pop collage or a dusty still life reimagined with bold new strokes, these transformed pieces are a tongue-in-cheek homage to our changing culture. Each piece will be auctioned off for no more than $100 — all proceeds benefit the Arts Center @ 319. So whether you're drawn to the traditional or the delightfully unconventional, you're sure to find something to refresh your space — and support the arts in our community |
