For the 14th time since February 2012, Hallwalls presents its twice-yearly drawing rally event, mid-summer edition. Invited artists will draw live in two 45 minute rounds, with silent auction of all drawings following each round. With opening bids set at an affordable $39, guests should not expect that all works will be bid too high to win a piece. While a Bill Maggio drawing set a drawing rally record in February 2018 by going for $750, works are won at all levels—from $39 to $50 to $150 and many points in between. It is the IDEAL situation for a budding collector or drawing enthusiast.

As of this rally, one two artists have participated in each one—Fotini Galanes and Alicia Paolucci—though there are many returning champs who have dotted the rally landscape—Kyle Butler, Emily Churco, Mickey Harmon, Pat "King" Kewley, Joel Brenden, Mark Lavatelli, among others. At the same time, nearly one third of participating artists this round are brand new to the drawing rally fold.

It remains, for some, their favorite Buffalo art event—come check it out and see why.
