#ConcentricCircles Art Campaign
The campaign title “Concentric Circles” pulls from the visual arts concept of repeating and connecting circles. The title is a nod to the meaning of the term, where circles of various radi have a common center. In this case, the common center is support of the Artbae Foundation and the work they do in the community, and the circles of different radi, are the contributing artists (or ‘the village’) coming together to support the Foundation.
The “Concentric Circles” Exhibition
The exhibition will be held at the Creative Suitland Art Center’s gallery during the inaugural Hats off to Artbae: Winter Fundraising Mixer & Birthday Bash and will be on display for public viewing and purchasing from Saturday, January 13th - Friday, January 19th. Up to 50 artworks will be sold at a fixed price. There will also be a pre-sale online viewing/purchase opportunity before the public in-person event, limited to a VIP audience. Items sold at pre-sale online would stay on display, but will have a red dot on their name card.
