I mentioned a couple Fridays ago that I'll be taking part in the multi-blog promotion of this year's Robert's Snow auction. Robert's Snow is a terrific fund-raiser for cancer research--children's book artists from around the globe have created one-of-a-kind snowflakes to be auctioned off in the months of November and December.If you are in the Boston area, you can actually visit the Robert's Snow snowflakes in person before they are auctioned off! There will be gallery showings at:
Child at Heart Gallery
Newburyport, MA
October 3-22
Danforth Museum of Art
Framingham, MA
November 4-December 22
Newburyport, MA
October 3-22
Danforth Museum of Art
Framingham, MA
November 4-December 22
If you are not in the Boston area, but still want to see the snowflakes, you can view many of them online. Not all of the illustrators have finished their snowflakes, but many of the ones that are finished have been posted on the Dana Farber website.
I'm so excited to be a part of this effort. I will be posting profiles and interviews with 5 artists...I've already heard back from all of them, and they are terrific, thoughtful, talented people. If you're the kind of person who likes to look ahead, here is my interview/posting schedule for Robert's Snow:
- October 27: Abigail Marble
- November 2: Holli Conger
- November 8: Matt Tavares (from Maine!)
- November 11: Amy Schimler
- November 13: Lee White
Again, thanks go to Seven Impossible Things Before Breakfast for organizing the blogger promotion effort. What a lot of work! Thanks Jules & Eisha!
