6th Annual Art Access Fundraiser & Exhibition |

    |
It¹s time again for the (oft imitated, yet never duplicated) 300 Plates Fundraiser & Exhibition. This year's event‹our sixth‹will be held on May 15th from 6:00 to 9:00 PM in the Art Access Gallery. In keeping with the constant urge for more room and better air circulation at this event, the celebration will overflow into the neighboring Utah Arts Festival space.
Art Access will also host a Gallery Stroll reception on Friday, May 16th from 6:00 to 9:00 PM to feature the entire exhibition, which will continue through June 13.
We have 82 participating artists this year. Yes, 82 established and emerging Utah artists working in a variety of mediums‹yet all creating art on the 11" x 10" recycled metal printer¹s plates you¹ve grown to know and love. The plate prices will start at $65 and increase sequentially in one-dollar increments. As always, a small selection of plates will be placed in our silent auction.
While salivating over art, you can also savor tasty morsels from Rico's Mexican Market, cool off with some Dolcetti Gelato, and calm your plate-buying angst while listening to the smooth jazz stylings of Aaron Rashaw and Steve Stewart of Fifth Fret.
Here is what to expect:
10:00 AM 5:00 PM Plate preview
6:00 PM 7:00 PM Social hour and continued preview
7:00 PM 8:30 PM Your name in a hat! (Every minute we will draw five names from a hat, until the hat is empty, entitling those lucky people to purchase one plate each with minimal competition. Automatically get your name in the hat with a paid RSVP by May 8th.
Additional "hat tickets" will be available for $25 each at the door.
8:30 PM 9:00 PM Remaining plates for sale
6:00 PM 9:00 PM Silent auction (We will be using blind bids again this year, and winners will be notified by the next day.
It's still just $25 per person to attend, as long as your RSVP is postmarked by May 8th (remember, this early RSVP gets you a "hat" ticket). RSVPs postmarked after May 8th and tickets purchased at the door on May 15th will be $35. Questions? Contact us at (801) 328-0703
All proceeds from the fundraiser will be used to support the inclusive programs of Art Access /VSA arts of Utah.
