Kingsport Art Guild’s 60th Anniversary “Recycled and Regifted Masterpieces Live Auction”

May 1, 2009

“Two heads are better than one”, they say. Several members of the Kingsport Art Guild have put this to the test and invite the community to see for themselves. Artists members have been working on each others paintings to create “Recycled Masterpieces” for the Guilds’ Live Auction to be held Friday, May 1 at the Renaissance Center, room 239, 1200 E. Center St., Kingsport. Preview of the paintings will be held from 5 – 6 p.m. with the live auction conducted by auctioneer, Mr. Terry Ball, from 6 – 7:15 p.m. The artists have donated their own paintings and through a blind drawing, have exchanged paintings with other artists in the group.   The task at hand was to solve the paintings dilemma or in some cases, just finish it for their fellow artist. Both artists’  names will be signed on the finished paintings. After several sessions, the group is ready to allow these “Recycled Masterpieces” to be auctioned for the benefit the Guild’s 60^th anniversary events.
