News Community News Postcard Art Auction in aid of Upward Mobility

unnamed (1)Upward Mobility and Edinburgh Palette are hosting the first Postcard Art Auction on the Thursday 26 November. Artists can donate  a postcard sized masterpiece to a silent auction and exhibition in Gallery 1 of Edinburgh Palette. All proceeds of the auction will benefit the students of Upward Mobility Project.

Here’s how it works. After Thursday 1 October any artists, from anywhere, not just Edinburgh Palette, can pick up  a free piece of postcard sized MDF, or multiples (within reason) from the Main Office of St Margaret’s House. Then they have until Friday the 13th of November to make it into a masterpiece around the loose theme of ‘TRANSFORM’.

After it’s handed in we will collect and exhibit the artworks at a public event in Gallery 1 of Edinburgh Palette, on the third floor at 4 – 7 pm on the 26th of November where there will be a silent auction of the collected artworks.

We will also be taking any other donated artworks and holding a live under the hammer auction.

The UPMO Café project will be providing canapes and we will be serving drinks.

For more details please call 0131 661 4411, email info@upwardmobilityproject.com or pop into the Edinburgh Palette office.
