Please join us for Not Right, a one night art auction event to raise funding and awareness for Southern Poverty Law Center. The exhibition will showcase 60+ artists, all of whom donated work for the cause.
All bidding will begin promptly at 7pm, starting price for all work is $50. Select pieces will also have a "buy it now" price, which will allow works to be bought outright. Otherwise, bidding will continue until 9:45pm at which point the work will be sold to the highest bidder. All proceeds from artwork sales and drinks will be donated to Southern Poverty Law Center.
The events that took place in Charlottesville are just a glimpse into a poorly hidden truth that racism and fear still persist in the America of today. Not Right unites a diverse roster of artists in different stages of their careers with the collective intent to speak out against white supremacy in all its forms.
"This past year should have worn away our capacity to say demonstrations of white supremacy and racial violence are exceptions or simply a moment... The unbearable racism, anti-Semitism, xenophobia, homophobia and white rage won't simply flush itself from the soul of our system”
- Excerpt from Was Charlottesville the Exception or the Rule? by Claudia Rankine for the New York Times, September 13, 2017.
