Wishing Well - Ava Cipriani Benefit (1.20.07)

We've previously posted about Ava Cipriani's ongoing battle with childhood cancer.  The art and vinyl communities have rallied to help her through donations of original art, toy customs and more to ease the cost of her mounting medical costs. The helping hand kicks into a new gear with the opening of the Wishing Well benefit show at Monkeyhouse Toys this Saturday, January 20th from 4 to 8 PM and runs through January 31st.  The show will feature custom art toys, paintings, limited edition prints, handmade plush, sketches, signed celebrity memorabilia from a wide range of artists (check the flier for full list).  After the show closes, remaining pieces will then be auctioned on eBay starting on February 1st for ten days.  Also, there's an online preview  going down tonight (Friday) @ 7PM.  To get on the preview list,  email [email protected] with the subject "wishing well preview". Props to Lou Pimentel for the flier design.  Here's wishing Ava a speedy recovery!

Thanks to Ally (Ava's mom) we have a small preview of the many excellent pieces that will be available on Saturday.  Some excellent work here :-) Click below to the full post to see all of the previews.
