Our 2018 Online Auction was a great success. Thank You! to all the artists who donated work for the auction and for all the bidders who bid on items. We had a record number of bids this year. The work was of exceptional quality and we are happy to have put so much work into the hands of buyers at wonderful prices.

In addition, we sold over 150 raffle tickets for the painting generously donated by artist Julie Y Baker Albright. Mike Caragher was the lucky winner! Congratulations Mike.

Listen to Mickey Meyers describe the wonderful exhibit Chagall in Montreal at the Musee des Beaux Arts . Her reflections on the artist and the recent trip with the Bryan Memorial Gallery shed light on both the exhibit and the artist.

Marc Chagall’s career spanned almost 100 years and 3 continents. Considered the quintessential Jewish artist of the 20th century, Chagall was a master colorist, dreamer and story teller. And for a few more days – through June 11 – three hundred and forty of his works can be seen at the Musee des Beaux Arts in Montreal.
