Sneakers and Canvas Call to Artists

Artist Opportunity: Decorated Sneakers and Sneaker-themed Canvas: The opening night for CONTINUUM will be their V.I.P. Black Tie and Sneaker Charity Affair, on Wednesday, January 21, 2015 from 6:00 – 11:00 p.m. The event is to benefit Faith’s Place Center for Education Inc. Faith’s Place is an organization that provides educational services to the community, offering pre-school (VPK), homework assistance, tutoring, and after school arts enrichment programs. Donations to Faith’s Place will be the suggested admission at the door of a new pair of sneakers, as well as the auctioning off of artist-decorated sneakers and canvases. Artists may choose to decorate a pair of sneakers or a 20” x 20” canvas, both of which will be provided by A.T.B. Fine Artists & Designers. The decorated sneakers and sneaker-themed canvases will be sold through a silent auction during the Black Tie and Sneaker Charity Affair.

Last year, artists decorated pairs of sneakers, but this year we are also offering the opportunity to create a sneaker-themed canvas. The artists really outdid themselves with their decorated sneakers. Here are a few from last year for inspiration.
