The Flat Iron Artists' Association presents The Third Annual Gilda’s Night Charity Event featuring gallery walk & sale, cocktail reception and lots more. Event highlights include both a Silent and Live Auction with celebrity auctioneers John Carroll, Amanda Puck, and Garry Meier, all proceeds going to Gilda’s Club Chicago.
This is a perfect event to help you economically start or enhance your fine art collection, while helping a very worthy cause.
ARTISTS GIVE 110%! Each artist participating in the event has donated at least one piece to either the silent or live auction. 100% of the proceeds from those sales will go directly to Gilda’s. In addition, 10 % of all other artwork being exhibited will also be donated to the cause!
Over 75 artists will be exhibiting and selling their work.
