Xchanges First Online Charity Auction Event!

Auction Re-Opened – until they are all sold!

We are celebrating the Year of the Tiger and Xchanges is thrilled to announce that our Online Charity Auction of Contemporary Chinese paintings and calligraphy is held over until they are all sold! Two lucky bidders have walked away with some beautiful artworks and helped to raise almost $600 for Xchanges:

Annie Nolan winning bid $300: Landscape by Hui Bing Chen, 22″x13″ (left)

Heidi Bergstrom winning bid $325: Heaven on Earth by Wei Wu, 53″x27″ (right).

Both Annie and Heidi are Xchanges members.

This fundraising auction will help raise much needed funds toward our feasibility study, a capital campaign, and planning for Xchanges future. You can help us reach our target ($3,000) by bidding on these works or making a direct donation today.

By the way, the picture of the tiger above is called “Playful Tiger” by Shan Xi Song, 26″x47″, only $300 for the minimum bid.

All auction items have the minimum bid posted – this is the Fair Market Value. Successful bidders may be able to receive Charitable Tax Receipts if the final bid amount is at least 125% over the Fair Market Value. An official Charitable Tax Receipt will be emailed or mailed to all successful bidders. Visit the auction site today to see all the works and information about the artists here: https://app.galabid.com/xchangesgallery

Reproduction posters of the works will be on display at Xchanges with QR codes to look up the information and make live bids.

So get your donations list ready before the end of the year and please add Xchanges. Don’t miss out on this great opportunity for excellent art, a bonus tax receipt, and to help a worthy cause! You can also make a donation via our online store, by cheque, or eTransfer. All donations are greatly appreciated!
