for a good cause

I’ve donated one of my pho­tographs to an auc­tion to ben­e­fit Yosemite Renais­sance, the orga­ni­za­tion that now over­sees the Artist-In-Residence pro­gram at Yosemite National Park. The piece below is from when I was in the park dur­ing 1997–98 as part of the program.

The auc­tions is a great oppor­tu­nity to add to or start your art col­lec­tion and help out a deserv­ing orga­ni­za­tion at the same time. The res­i­dency pro­gram is cur­rently on hia­tus as they work to upgrade a cabin that will be used by artists. The orga­ni­za­tion is count­ing on this auc­tion to help with that effort.

All auc­tion art­work will be view­able (if it’s not there already) at the auc­tion page off the main Yosemite Renais­sance home page, where you can also place bids online. Or if you pre­fer to view and bid on the work in per­son, they’ll be on exhibit at the Ansel Adams Gallery in Yosemite Val­ley Wednes­day and Thurs­day, August 27–28. Recep­tion and the live auc­tion will be on Thurs­day from 6 to 8 p.m.
