More Than A Pretty Face

The Boise Art Museum selected 30 artists in the Treasure Valley to participate in the second year of their newest fundraiser.

Museum patrons and collectors will attend salons throughout the fall and contract with these artists for commissions or to purchase artworks from their inventories. Half the sales price will go to the museum and half to the artist. It's a good way to involve artists in fundraising, since most non-profits want artists to donate their work with no return.

On Thursday, September 30th, all 30 artists will be at the museum from 5:30-7:30 showing their work. This is open to the public free of charge and all works will be available for purchase there, with half the proceeds going to the museum.
