BIG ARTS BIG SECRET fundraiser was held on January 24th on Sanibel and this year consisted of a totally unique form of art sale. The big secret was that none of the guests would know who had created each of the 8 X 10 artworks until the end of the evening.

There was also a live performance by the incredible artist Jonas Gerard, who created a fabulous work of art as viewers watched. This colorful masterpiece later was auctioned off for the sum of $5000. Jonas also donated several other pieces of art, as did the other Island favorites, Ikki and Polly Matsumoto, and Myra Roberts.

This year’s fundraiser was a wonderful success and enjoyed by all. Definitely a “must attend” for next year! To learn more about BIG ARTS campus, their history, class schedules, and upcoming events, got to BIGARTS.org.
