OHIO TALENT
NEEDED FOR SHOWCASE 2000
Ohio
University faculty and staff, you are invited to participate
in Showcase 2000, which will be held on May 18th from 11:00
a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at Nelson Commons. Showcase 2000 provides
an opportunity for faculty, administrators and both
bargaining and non-bargaining unit employees to share
artistic abilities and creative talents with the university
and Athens communities.
Participants
may submit their items in any of three categories:
- for
display only
- donation
for Bobcat Auction
- on a
60/40 consignment (artist-60%,
exhibition-40%)
In
previous years, items were sold through a public auction.
This year, however, we are going to use a Bobcat Auction.
Bidders in the Bobcat Auction purchase a desired number of
tickets in one or more of the following pricing levels:
- $1
tickets -- one to four for $1 each, or six for
$5
- $5
tickets -- one to four for $5 each, or five for
$20
- $10
tickets -- one to ten for $10 each, or eleven for
$100
Bidders
place one or more tickets (of the appropriate pricing level)
into a container located in front of the donated item(s)
they are interested in obtaining. At the end of the
Showcase, one ticket will be drawn per item to select the
winners. If your ticket is drawn for a particular item, YOU
WIN !!! (Participants do not have to be present to win.)
Examples
of items donated at previous showcases include:
- Wall
paper hanging/design
- Drafting
of a Will
- Musical
entertainment
- Comic
routines
- Knitting
- Quilt
making
- Painting/watercolors/drawing
- Woodworking
All
proceeds from items donated or sold on consignment will be
used to endow a scholarship. The scholarship is limited to
students enrolled at the Athens Campus and will be awarded
to OU employees or their dependents that have earned 45
credit hours or more.
Come and
be a part of Showcase 2000! For further information on
