14th Annual 50|50 Fundraiser
Sanchez Art Center opens the 14th annual 50|50 Show on Friday, Sept 9 with an amazing array of small (6” x 6”), affordable artworks.
Congratulations to the three AGP members who are in the show, Susan Friedman, Carol “Coco” Pan and Jennifer Alpaugh.
The Opening Fundraiser will be held Sept 9–Sept 10; the 9th is already sold out! Ticket holders select a date and time interval to see the show in its entirety (over 2,700 pieces of art), and to purchase their favorite pieces, which can be picked up or shipped to buyers the week of Sept 12. The Opening Fundraiser also offers live music, beverages (for a donation), and a chance to chat with 50|50 artists. Tickets are limited and none will be available at the door, so purchase yours early at Eventbrite.com. Saturday tickets are still available! As of the free Public Opening on Sunday, Sept 11, 12 pm–6 pm, art buyers get to immediately take their purchases home.
From Sept 16 through the show’s closing on Oct 9, galleries are open regular hours, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday 1–5 pm. Our safety protocol includes facemasks being required for the opening fundraiser and strongly recommended at all other times in the gallery.
