Art Auction in Aid of the RYST
Acclaimed local artist Yvonne Fuller has kindly donated these two beautiful paintings to raise money for the Roseland Youth SailingTrust (RYST). Theres still time to snap them up, but youll have to be quick.
The watercolours, which are scenes of St Mawes Sailing Clubs Junior Sail Training Race Week 2021, are on display in St Mawes Sailing Club. The paintings are currently for sale using a sealed bid process, with offers invited in excess of £500 per painting or £900 for both. The sealed bids are being collected at the Waterside Gallery, 21 Marine Parade, St Mawes, TR2 5DW.
But there's a twist: after determining the highest bid, there will be a further auction to invite new offers, the aim being to raise as much as possible in support of our programmes.
You are invited to join us at the Sailing Club for the auction on Friday 23 August at 6pm or simply make your sealed bid beforehand or both! Please note that the Junior Sail Training prize giving will take place soon after.
Whichever way you decide to bid, you'll be helping a new generation of children and young people in Cornwall experience the joy of sailing, building attitudes and skills that will help them throughout their lives.
