June 12 PSU Art Auction Party

It is no secret that tax support for Oregon Universities is anemic and it's even hungrier for arts. So the PSU Art Department is holding a yummy bakesale of art, with music, food, and wine. It is all being organized by the MFA students themselves. All very social practice!

The auction is a little complicated, so for details check the online auction website: www.anewpathtothewaterfall.com. There is a pretty interesting mix of contemporary art, you can browse images with the artist bios on the website. It's a great collection, ranging national figures, including artists who have spoken at the Monday night lecture series; PSU art grads; and established artists with Portland connections.

The auction is online, it won't happen tonight, it will be some future date.

The launch event is at the PSU Art Building 2000 SW 5th. Leave extra time for construction in the area, or it's a short walk from the streetcar. 5PM-8
