Holiday Children’s Art Auction Kicks Off Nov. 27
NEW YORK, NY, Oct. 24, 2012 – The American Booksellers Foundation for Free Expression (ABFFE), the bookseller’s voice in the fight against censorship, announced today that it will launch an online auction of original children’s art on Nov. 27. The week-long eBay auction will feature work from the leading artists and illustrators working in book publishing today. It is the online version of the children’s art auction that is held during BookExpo America. Both auctions help support ABFFE’s defense of the free speech rights of kids. “The auction will give people around the country a chance to support free speech by purchasing wonderful holiday gifts, ” ABFFE President Chris Finan said.
ABFFE is continuing to solicit art for the auction. The deadline for submission is Nov. 16.
