ART DRAW HUGE SUCCESS!

The Art Draw was held on the 25th January 2004 as a major fundraising event for the Restoration Appeal 2004. £15,000 was raised by the Art Draw itself and further amounts are to be raised by the sale or auction of remaining or reserved items. The Art Draw was conducted by TV personality Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen and our Patron Countess Jill Bernadotte. It was preceded by an exhibition of the works of art, at The Bear Space which is a new Deptford Art Gallery adjacent to The Bear Church in Deptford High Street.

This is how it worked:

1) 100 artists of repute agreed to donate a piece of their work to the Art Draw. Their donations have been overwhelmingly generous as this catalogue reveals.

2)  Individuals or groups became Art Draw Sponsors, each giving £200. The sponsors names were drawn at the Art Draw - and they chose one of the works.

Enjoy the catalogue and if you would like more information please call St.Paul's Office on 020 8692 0989 or contact rector@paulsdeptford.org.uk.
