What Makes this event different?
In 2019 over 60 pieces of artwork sold in 3 hours. We hope you will join us for Art Dash 2020! All artworks in Art Dash are priced at $100. Each selected artist will have between 3 and 6 pieces on view and the artist will receive 100% of their sale proceeds.
In the year 2020 artists now need our support more than ever.
Beacon Gallery will hold a one-night-only event to provide support to visual artists from sales of their work. Gallery Owner and Director, Christine O’Donnell will host a juried exhibition of small works called “Art Dash” on December 19th where artists will receive 100% of the sales. All work will be priced at $100 each. This is a true pop-up event from 6-9pm with a preview during the day from 12-6pm; sales will begin promptly at 6pm. Gallery visitors will take work right off the walls and take it home on the spot.
This is guaranteed to be an event to remember!
