2010 Auction Saturday, June 12, 2010, Marriott Ballroom VI, 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm First silent table closes at 5:15 pm (tables continue to close every 15 minutes) Preview Friday, June 11, 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm Saturday, June 12, 9:00 am - 6:00 pm The GAS Auction has become one of the highlights of the annual conference, and we hope you consider donating a piece of your artwork, goods or services. Your donation helps subsidize half-price student fees and keeps all registration fees affordable. Expected to be one of the largest GAS auctions ever with many donors and buyers, it will also be a great opportunity for exposure of your work. Twenty five pieces will be selected for the Live auction from pieces created by 2010 Louisville Conference presenters and GAS Board members. Five surprise pieces will be selected from the items donated for the auction by other member artists to the Glass Art Society. This year donating artists have the choice to give 100% to GAS, or to receive 10%, 25% or 40% of the selling price. Your donation will be on exhibit throughout the conference and acknowledged in the 2010 Glass Art Society Journal. How to donate:1. Bring your donated piece to the conference. Drop it off at: Marriott Ballroom VII, Wednesday, June 9, 12:00 pm - 5:00 pm; Thursday, June 10, 9:00 am - 12:00 pm; Friday, June 11, 9:00 am - 12:00 pm.2. Complete and return the 2010 Auction Donation Form with a high resolution (at least 300 dpi) JPG of your piece, so that we can include it in the Power Point presentation. This also helps us in planning the display of the auction pieces. 3. If you want to ship your piece (at your own expense) please address it to the following: University of Louisville Department of Fine Arts Room 104 Schneider Hall Louisville, KY 40208 Attn. "Glass Art Society Auction" Donating Artists: Artists donating to the Auction are encouraged to hand-deliver their work to the conference packed well enough for carryout. Shipped work must be received in Louisville by June 1, 2010. GAS promises to handle your pieces with the utmost respect and care, and to update you on the status and sale of your donation, but we are not responsible for breakage, theft, or loss. If your donation does not sell, GAS will keep it to place in the next fundraiser or event to benefit GAS. Eligibility: The GAS Auction is open to all glass artists and suppliers; you do not need to be a member of GAS. Glass artists can submit one piece of artwork; all artwork must be designed by the artist. You do not have to attend the conference to donate, and donating work is a great way to support GAS if you are not able to attend! Buyers: Professional packers and shippers will be on site after the Auction on Saturday evening. All purchases are final and must be paid for and removed from the premises during the evening. Items that are not removed will be shipped at the purchasers expense. No exchanges or refunds allowed. GAS assumes no responsibility for the shipping of purchases or for those items not picked up immediately after the Goblet Grab or the Auction. Once you have made arrangements with a shipping vendor, GAS cannot, by shipping regulations, intervene on your behalf with the shipper. You must resolve any concerns regarding artwork damaged or lost during shipping by contacting the shipping vendor directly. GAS is a non-profit organization funded by its own membership. We are counting on your support. Thank you! Click here to go back to the Louisville, KY conference main page
