For the Love of Art

 
Jean Wagner Troemel Retrospective
PATRONS BENEFIT
February 5, 2010  |  7 to 10pm
See the first viewing of over 50 original paintings donated by the artist to sell "for the love of art" to benefit the youth art programs of the St. Augustine Art Association.  At 89 years young!, Jean Troemel is a beloved Florida artist whose highly-valued works appear in museums and private collections across the globe.  This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of St. Augustine history!  Please join us for an elegant Main Gallery gathering, hosted by Mayor Joe Boles.  The evening includes music, cocktails, heavy hors d'oeuvres and special patron's discount.  Admission is $75 (black tie optional).   RSVP by calling 904.824.2310.


Proceeds from the fundraiser and art sales will benefit art education for youth and art access for children with disabilities, such as the Annual Tactile Art Show.
