From 6 to 9pm on Friday 28 February, The Gallery at Altos de Chavon is welcoming friends of Altos de Chavon to its silent auction of student and faculty art and works by former artists-in-residence. The event is sponsored by the Altos de Chavon Cultural Center Foundation, a US 501?(3) public charity registered in Washington, D.C. that supports donations to worthy students at the Altos de Chavon School of Design. An evening of cocktails, hors d'oeuvres and live music to benefit The Scholarship Fund is scheduled. Donations at the door are US$50 or RD$2,200 per person. For details, contact Martha Victoria mvictoria2302@hotmailcom or Tel 809 523-8470/8011 from 8:30 to 4:30pm.

The event coincides with the weekend of the Elton John Concert at the Altos de Chavon amphitheater on Friday, 28 February, and the docking of the John Walker & Sons Voyager.

I am a strong supporter of the magic of Altos de Chavon. Its students are a testimony to a great school of the arts. The dedication of the directors, the inspiration of the place itself, with so much feeling, and the bringing together of a group of talented individuals and then asking them to do their best just makes things happen.

The directors over the years have wanted to keep the cost of tuition down so as to reach out to as many talented artists as they can. Events like these help this continue.
