Twenty-two Monterey County artists dedicated their pieces to help Luna, a Monterey dog who is currently undergoing treatment for lymphoma. In all, 45 pieces of art are being auctioned online—the auction runs through Sunday, Nov. 15. If you want to help Luna with veterinary expenses by exploring local art, this project will delight you.
Luna’s owner is Monterey artist Scout Luketich, and the effort is coordinated by artist Paul Richmond who is hosting the auction on his website. Both artists donated multiple pieces for the project.
Carol Diggory Shields, Anne Ylvisker, Kailen "Kai" Anderson, Holly Havlick, Rachel Lancaster and Domini Anne are among other participating artists. The pieces represent all possible media, including tin art and wearables.
“I'm especially proud of the participation from our local arts community,” Richmond wrote about the project. “It's a beautiful reminder of how people can come together to support one another, and how something as simple as sharing our creativity can make a real difference in someone's life.”
The auction is happening entirely online and is open to bidders everywhere. All proceeds go to one very special dog.
