BICAS Auction and Final Reflection


After working for so long on the Pre-Auction on Saturday, December 3, 2011, I arrived on Sunday the 4th to see the auction in full swing! It was amazing to see so many people, all passionate about BICAS and the Tucson community. I revisited my curated print show to see it rearranged! This was somewhat upsetting, seeing how Kasey and I put so much effort into arranging the print show so that the works would create a nice transition into one another, while being complemented against the colored backgrounds.

It was okay though, everything was still nice, and it seemed that everyone enjoyed the print show regardless. I stayed at the auction long enough to make (and lose) a few bids and worked the show by helping people with questions. I ended up leaving early because I was not feeling well (it was seriously the coldest weekend in Tucson!). I heard however, that it ended nicely, and cooperatively.

In all, I had a blast working with BICAS and with my colleagues in ARE 520. It was such a great experience that really opened up my eyes to the possibilities of community based art education.
