The Vineyard Haven Harbor Cultural District, with help of the Vineyard Haven Business Association, has put out their first call for art and fundraiser! Asking local artists how Jaws has inspired them over the years (whether directly or more subtly), we have created this auction: "JAWS: An Artist's Perspective, We're Gonna Need a Bigger Gallery..."

Initially displaying all artwork together for the MV Museum, Vineyard Gazette's sold out Reunion Day event on Sunday, June 22nd we will then split up the artwork to be displayed in participating local businesses all throughout Vineyard Haven.

We have 25 art pieces in total, from 22 Martha's Vineyard artists, which will be displayed all over Vineyard Haven inside 21 local businesses. Representing a wide variety of mediums (including photography, jewelry, found objects, fabric, oil, acrylic, fossilized teeth, cut paper, linoleum printing, spray paint, metalsmith, ceramics and other mixed media materials) and with values ranging from $75.00 - $7,500.00, the VHHCD couldn't be more excited about the turnout of our incredible island artist community!

All proceeds from this auction goes directly back to each individual artist, with a percentage of each sale also raising money towards future Vineyard Haven Harbor Cultural District public art initiatives. Current and future initiatives can be found at www.vhhcd.org.

Online Auction happening now through July 22nd!
