Distinguished works of art will grace the Middleburg Community Center on Friday, February 24th, in an unprecedented auction of original artwork from the community’s best local artists.  Doors for this fundraising event will open at 5:30 P.M., and proceeds will benefit the Middleburg Montessori School.

“It is always impressive when so many artists come together to support a worth-while cause like this one,” offered Bradley Stevens, one of our country’s leading realist painters.  Stevens, a former faculty member at both George Washington University and Georgetown University, donated a children’s group drawing lesson in portraiture and an adult “plein-air,” or outdoor oil-painting lesson, at Barrel Oaks winery in Delaplane.  These items, like all other offerings, will go to the highest bidder.

With more than fifteen committed artists, including the furniture of craftsmen at Plank & Nickel, the auction will showcase the art of Misia Broadhead-Barham, Anthony Barham, Kim Basinger, Armand Cabrera, Hwa Crawford, Mikel Diaz, Richard Dimon, Charles Matheson, Lilla Ohrstrom, Dana Lee Thompson, Dana Volkert, Charlie Westbrook, Henry Wingate, and Cathy Zimmerman, among others.
