Now Donating to Silent Auction's! 

Earlier this week I attended a charity fundraiser for Epilepsy Ottawa-Carelton, called Sip N' Style at The Mill St. Brew Pub. It was a great event and great silent auction, and anyone who knows me knows that this is a very high praise for me to hand out!

I'm a volunteer with the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of Canada, helping organize fundraisers, among many tasks. One of our most popular, and arguably, most fun, fundraisers is Martini Madness, which will take place November 14th at Lago Bar and Grill on Dow's lake. The name of this event may be why it's so popular...who doesn't love a good martini?!

For the past 4 years I've been organizing the art component of our event (mARTini...!). Last year Koyman Galleries was our official art sponsor, but this year as I have started my own art consulting company, I will be the official sponsor and couldn't be more excited! I will be displaying work by 10 of the artists I represent, each of whom have generously donated to our silent auction. In addition to the donated work, we will have many more pieces on display. 

For anyone organizing upcoming Ottawa fundraisers, please let me know if you're looking for donations for your silent auction table! I will happily donated a certificate for 1-2 hrs of my time, which can be used for an in home art consultation or you can put me to work moving and hanging the art you already have!
