[Steven Godfrey]

Hey folks, I'm looking for anyone who'd like to participate in providing some sort of ARTS/CRAFTS/ETC. toward fundraising for the 4-month bike tour for Livestrong (thru TX & LA). PLEASE CONTACT ASAP, as I hope to have a lineup of fundraising/promo products READY FOR 9/1. Volunteer or compensation options are available for your work. Thank you.

Eep! Could you give us more information?

As a working artist in Shreveport I'm (for the most part) AGAINST artists donating work to support causes. This market has been saturated with too much art available at ridiculously low prices at fundraisers. If working artists ever want to be taken seriously in this town we have to stop giving away our work. No other profession is tapped like the local artisan market is to support fundraisers.

Here are my two blog posts/position papers that explain why.

The first is

SB Land Artists Change the Way They Participate in Non-Profit Silent Auction Fundraisers

And the follow up is

Four NEW Items That Aren't Art That Artists Can Donate To a Silent Auction Fundraiser

Thanks for listening, reading and answering my questions.

Kathryn
