Charity Auction
This year Anime Banzai's Art Show will be hosting a silent Charity Auction and we would like your help. We are looking for artists to donate a handcrafted item, or set of items, to Anime Banzai that can be placed up for bid in the Art Show to help raise funds for a charity (TBD).
- All proceeds will go the this year's charity of choice (not yet determined, but in the past we have donated to Huntsman Cancer Research among others).
- Item(s) do not have to be anime related, but it is preferred.
- Item(s) can be either 2 or 3 dimensional.
- Item(s) donated will not be part of the general Art Show and, therefore, will not be eligible to receive show prizes.
- Artists can set the beginning price for the piece that they donate, but we ask that the prices be reasonable.
- There will be no reserve and no buy now prices on these items.
- We will accept items that are being sold by an artist in Artist Alley, so long as it is either numbered or in some way unique.
- If a set of items are donated they will go up for bid as a set unless otherwise specified.
- If the donated item(s) do not have a bid by Sunday afternoon at the close of the Art Show then the items will go to Anime Banzai to be given as compensation to on site volunteers.
- If the artist is not attending the convention we will make arrangements for drop off or pick up, determined on a case by case basis.
- Artists may supply a card or sign designating who donated the item(s) for display with the item in the Art Show.
- Artists must send information to the Art Show email by Friday October 12th, 2012 to allow for proper space planning.
- Item(s) must be provided to the Art Show no later than 1pm on Friday October 19th, 2012.
If you have any questions, concerns, or would like to arrange to donate an item please send an email to artshow@animebanzai.org with the subject "Banzai Charity Auction".
