"Art for Obama"

For those not subscribing to the 'new downtown' yahoo group, Bert Green posted a reminder about a political fund-raiser for Democratic Presidential hopeful Barack Obama.

The fundraiser, "Art for Obama" takes place at two galleries Tuesday, September 23, 2008 from 6-9pm & is $20 per person admittance. You'll want to go to:

Bert Green Fine Art:
102 West 5th St
Los Angeles, CA 90013

Los Angeles Center for Digital Art (LACDA):
107 West 5th St
Los Angeles, CA 90013

According to the mailer, 10% of all art purchases will also be donated to the Obama Campaign. Also Bert Green states:

"An original oil portrait of Barack Obama and a special giclee print will be available at Bert Green Fine Art. Art for Obama is a series of fund raising events founded by Bruce McBarnette to benefit the Obama campaign. For info visit:

A pretty cool sounding event, and if you are looking to add something to your art collection and support Obama, Tuesday night is a good night as any to do it. ;)
