Art for Penland Sales Program Supports Penland Classes
Art for Penland is a web-based art sales program designed to support Penland School of Crafts classes, programs, studios, and scholarships through the sale of art contributed by artists and other donors.
Funds from the sale of these items go directly to Penland School of Crafts. Penland's fees for tuition, room, and board cover less than half the annual expense for classes, outreach programs, and services to artists. Your contribution directly benefits the artists and students who study and work here. Help us sustain Penland's exceptional programs and the school's leadership in the field of craft education.
Here's a look at one of the fabulous items available now through Art for Penland:
Gary Griffin is one of the nation's most esteemed metalsmiths and educators. For 22 years, he taught at Cranbrook Academy of Art and headed its metals department. He has influenced hundreds of students and encouraged them to study at Penland. His Rock with Anomaly Verde is a wall-mounted sculpture made of steel with a powder-coated green appendage. If you know Gary, you'll appreciate the humor in his description:
"It is one of a series of fabricated steel rocks mounted to the wall. In its context on the wall, the rock is odd and the lime green flower/science model is more so."
Gary Griffin has generously given this work to Penland in support of the scholarship fund for metals students.
