a post event THANK YOU...

to all the artists, crafters, cooks, volunteers, donators and businesses that helped us put this all together and have such a huge collected showing I am now and always and forever indebted and thankful to and for you. I can’t believe the charity, love, compassion, trust, excitement, drive and a singular willingness to work together that you all displayed. My heart swells with appreciation and pride, I hope you share this feeling with me.

To the 4th st arts crew a round of high 5’s and thank you’s. you guys blew me away. It was an epic and monumental day for my entire family and group of friends and artists. Thank you for giving us a great platform to expose some artist, get our message out and raise a boat load of money. Our charities will know of your direct involvement with these funds being raised, you too should feel the pride that comes with a job more then well done.

My family, friends and volunteers who showed up at 7-8am to help me put together our outdoor tented gallery I owe you several beers and a nice home cooked meal, thank you for your hard work your sweat and your time! I love you all and thanks for stepping up and doing a bang up job. (though next year I will need to schedule a sober 10pm breakdown crew or make provisions for an easier disassembly!)

i am going to upload pictures of the couple pieces that arrived the day of to the virtual flickr gallery. the pieces that did not sell and we were ok'd to "SET SELL" we will be posting here with a price that will include shipping. I will also be recompiling a list of contributors with links to their personal websites, and posting it here in the upcoming days. I’d love it if you would consider supporting these artist and contributors in the future, they all gave us so much to work with and view during the auction. I am still in awe of how many people came to me over the past year with their eagerness and willingness to contribute. HUGE THANKS brothers and sister it was a true testament to D.I.Y. ethics and a lesson on how to work outside “the box”.

I can not thank you all enough.

IN PURSUIT OF THE CURE
