As you probably already know, the CommuniTee Art Project (CAP) is about generating funds for public school art programs. We’re about to wrap up the first CAP for the South End and it’s Joseph J Hurley and McKinley Public Schools. The results have been fantastic, with dozens and dozens of students submitting art work and with hundreds of people voting for their favorite designs. We hope to do this again in other communities!

This Thursday at the CommuniTee party we’re unveiling the winning designs on tee shirts, which will also be for sale at the party and thereafter around town. The proceeds of the tee shirt sales will go to those schools and their art programs to help purchase art supplies. Also at the party, which will be emceed by WCVB’s Bianca de la Garza, we’re going to have a silent auction, of which proceeds go to the school art programs as well. There’s actually quite a bit of valuable items going up for auction too!

You can check out the party on the CitySquares Facebook page, or right here:

When: June 5th, 2008 @ 5:30pm
Where: Gallery XIV, 37 Thayer Street, in Boston’s South End.
Featuring: Cocktails, bites from Red Fez, silent auction!
