2008 edition
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 5, 2008 · 4:00 – 7:00 p.m.
![]() |
The Samuel S. Fleisher Art Memorial presents the third biennial invitational exhibition and sale of original art to benefit Fleisher's education and exhibition programs. Dear Fleisher 2008 features original art in postcard size (4 x 6 inches) in a range of media. In keeping with Fleisher's mission of access for all, each piece is priced at $50.00 and sold on a first-come, first-served basis — with no presales. Each postcard is signed on the back, keeping the artist's identity a surprise until after the sale and allowing viewers the pleasure of focusing on the strength of the work itself.

A $5 contribution at the door is suggested. Refreshments will be served and a cash bar will be open.
A special Preview Party will take place on Saturday, October 4, from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. Attendees will have the opportunity to get a sneak peek — but not purchase — the artwork on display. However, ten 4 x 6-inch pieces created especially for the Preview Party by an honorary artist committee will be raffled during the evening. The honorary artists committee includes Lanny Bergner, Astrid Bowlby, Moe Brooker, Paul DuSold, Alex Kanevsky, Virgil Marti, Sarah McEneaney, Elizabeth Osborne, Ron Rumford, and Zöe Strauss.
Tickets for the preview party are $100 a person, and include one complimentary raffle ticket. Additional raffle tickets can be purchased at the party. For tickets and sponsorship information for the preview, please contact Meg Wise at 215.922.3456 ext. 311 or mwise@fleisher.org.
