“We have been approached by many local artists asking to host an event at Asian Art Gallery featuring their works.  So when Jharna Madan wanted to organize the event it was a no-brainer.” said Santhana Krishnan, Founder, Asian Art Gallery. “I commend the artists as they all agreed to donate fifty-percent of the net sale proceeds to local charities.”

“I am delighted to organize the event as it not only showcases the artists creative talent but also shows the Indian diaspora coming together to support local charities.” said Jharna Madan. “We have chosen two great organizations making a difference in the community – Big Brother Big Sister and Food Shelter.”
