Call for Art

EASL Art Heist 2012
BRIT (Botanical Research Institute of Texas)
6:00 PM - 10:00 PM, Saturday, April 28



EASL is asking outstanding regional artists like you to be an "Accomplice" (donating artist) and contribute a work of art for Art Heist 2012.  THANK YOU very much if you have already registered as an Accomplice!  We know that you are taking time out of your already busy lives to support the EASL Fund and we appreciate that.

If you have NOT registered yet, it is not too late!  We need YOU!  There is already a buzz among EASL supporters and collectors who are looking forward to the April 28th event.

NEW
Online Ticket Sales are available on the EASL website.  The Preview of Art Heist Art page is live and includes a list of all donating artists plus a slideshow of submitted images of donated art!  How can you help EASL sell more tickets?  Register as an Accomplice and your name will be added to the Donating Artists list. You can then email an image of the piece you will donate, and your image will soon appear on the Preview Art slideshow.

The registration system can only assign one artist to an email address. So, if you ordinarily share an email address with another artist who would also like to donate to Art Heist, one of you will need to use a different email address.



artists@easl.us
Click the above email address to submit an image of the art you will be donating. Also, if you did not know the "title", "medium", or "dimensions" of your work when you registered, send that information to this email address as well.
