SJICA Monotype Marathon
Sunday, June 1st, 2008
The San Jose Institute of Contemporary Art held the Monotype Marathon over the weekend. This intensive printmaking event is a successful annual fundraiser for the ICA.
Artists are encouraged to invite a sponsor to underwrite their participation in the event and are able to print at selected studios within the Bay Area. Sponsors donate $300 to the ICA and in return are given the opportunity to use their donation as an opening bid for prints during the silent auction held after the exhibition. This years exhibition runs July 1-19 and the silent auction takes place on the last Saturday of the exhibit.
The Marathon is a collaborative effort between the ICA and several facets that make up the arts community in the Bay Area. (more…)
