Over the past month, I have been talking to local artists and inquiring about their concerns for publicity. After meeting with a few who do not consider themselves artists, I have to include applied art and trade skills.
The idea I have now, that each artist or tradesman will donate a piece of work to display at a public venue,can be hosted by PRSSA. The event will actually be a silent auction, as well as an opportunity for media to come meet original creators and for buyers to get autographs or place more orders.
PRSSA will accept donations and split the proceeds with the creators of each piece sold. A portion of the proceeds could also go to benefit a local guild or non-profit proponent of the art community.
