Quest Art Steamroller Prints Auction


Hot Off The Press

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Nov. 12, 2012 (Midland, ON)

Quest Art is having an auction - all for a great cause.

Quest Art is displaying original artwork as part of its Steamroller Prints Auction at the Midland Cultural Centre, The Library Restaurant and Grounded Coffee Company.

Some of our community artists created original wood cut blocks, which they printed with the Town of Midland’s asphalt roller during Artwalk 2012. These prints are now up for auction until Friday, Nov. 23.

People are encouraged to place a bid in person today at the Quest Art Shop (333 King Street) located in the Midland Cultural Centre. Proceeds raised from this auction directly benefit Quest Art’s education programs.

Artistic Dimensions has offered a 20% discount on framing for any of the prints purchased.

The prints will be on display in the Atrium Gallery on Thursday, Nov. 22 and Friday, Nov. 23 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Bidding will close at 8:30 p.m. the Friday.

The Steamroller Prints Auction coincides with the Brookside Concert featuring Red Chamber at the Midland Cultural Centre on Nov. 23.
