Krakow Witkin Gallery's annual AIDS Benefit Exhibition opens Saturday

Arts and Entertainment

November 23, 2022

From: Krakow Witkin Gallery

Krakow Witkin Gallery is proud to announce that the Annual AIDS Benefit is happening! This will be the third year that it is online-only.

As in past years, the benefit goes live at exactly 10 am EST on Saturday, November 26, in support of World AIDS Day.

This year, the benefit will be entirely online here.

Once the site goes live, one can browse all the artworks but none are visible before 10am on the 26th.

As always, works of art in this exhibition have been generously donated by artists, many working in the greater Boston area and some from beyond. The small works (approximately 15" x 15" or so) are each available for $350 that goes to the
Dimock Center's Boston Pediatric and Family AIDS Program.

The basics of how it will work are the following:

-Please register an account in advance of 10am, Saturday the 26th of November. If you registered last year, your info is the same.
-Registering will make checkout during the benefit quicker.
-Why is quicker important? Once one chooses a work of art, one has only 90 seconds to complete the transaction or it goes back to being available to others, and so, if you preregister, you will only have to press two buttons to confirm your purchase and thus, you'll be that much more likely to get what you want.

In order to register, click this link.
-Then, click the “my account” tab to begin the process.

-After registering, you will be directed to a “Payment Verification” page where your credit card will be charged $1 to confirm that the account is valid.

Reminder:
-The benefit exhibition opens promptly at 10 AM on Saturday, November 26th.
-Works go swiftly and the exhibition is only a few days long, so please do act quickly!

-Please know that if you are interested in purchasing more than one work, you should still purchase them one by one, aka – go through the process of buying one (make sure you get confirmation of the transaction being done), then click the button that takes you back to the grid of images to browse for your next find!

The generosity of both the artists and purchasers of the works combines to make an incredible gesture that has been overwhelmingly appreciated.  100% of the proceeds go toward assisting children infected with HIV, AIDS and their families.  Since this benefit began, we have raised close to a million dollars!

Thank you for your support and for helping us respond to this continuing worldwide epidemic!
