SIlent Auction Donation for the Annual Conference

Some of us are headed off to Ft. Worth, Texas for this year's ARLIS/NA Annual Conference, and we'll be bringing treasures from Northern California to donate to the silent auction, benefiting student scholarships. We have a great collection this year! Thanks to all chapter members who generously donated, and to Abby Bridge for beating the bushes and getting some wonderful corporate donations.

This year, we've got some wares crafted by chapter members:

• Three postcard format prints from Commuter Diary series, by Mary Marsh
  
• Felted macarons guest soaps, by Darlene Tong
• Hand-embroidered “Overdue” tea towel, by Dayna Holz

 And some great donations from member institutions and chapter admirers:

• South of Market, by Janet Delaney. Photobook related to exhibition currently on view at the de Young Museum, donated by SFMOMA Museum Store 
• Garry Winogrand. Catalog of exhibition jointly organized by SFMOMA and the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, currently on view at Fundación MAPFRE, Madrid. Donated by SFMOMA Research Library
