If you have not yet seen or heard about this wonderful event at the IECA conference in Boston, May 2-4, please let me introduce you to it.
Fifteen schools and programs from the northeast are supporting the IECA Foundation with an art show and silent auction of student art-work, of all shapes and sizes. We currently have 260 pieces of art that will be auctioned including framed paintings, framed photography, framed drawings, sculptures, jewelry, and much more.
You may recall the first event of this kind a few years back at an IECA conference in California. That art show and auction was a huge success and it returns bigger and better. Last time the event was held several blocks from the conference hotel at a renovated art studio - but this year we will be right inside the Westin and more specifically, in the main hallway outside of Conference Central and the main ballroom. This will make it both easy and convenient for you to visit the art show and auction frequently during the conference. The show and auction will end with the Friday afternoon Networking event. This will serve as the Foundation's only event at the conference and it promises to be a fun and exciting time.
As mentioned, the art auction benefits the IECA Foundation but it also benefits the students themselves as the purchase price for each item will be split
evenly between the IECA Foundation and the student artist. The students who have been working on their pieces are excited to show them to you and hope that you bid on them for your home or office, or as a gift for others.
Thank you for supporting the talent of our students and the IECA Foundation. Programs that will be participating include Adirondack Leadership Expeditions, Cardinal Cushing School, Chamberlain International School, Deck House School, Family Foundation School, Germaine Lawrence, Grove School, Lakeview NeuroRehab Center
Mountain Valley Treatment Center, Oliverian School, Shortridge Academy, Summit Traverse, Academy at Swift River, True North and the Wediko School.
Please contact Jeff Brain if you have any questions - and I look forward to seeing you in Boston!
