Ventnor Skatepark launched their second Big Art Auction at the beginning of the month.
The online auction has got off to an amazing start, with bids piling up on the many fantastic pieces of artwork donated from artists around the world.
If you haven’t been able to make it along in person (to Ventnor Exchange) to see the artwork, don’t worry because it’s all listed on the Big Art Auction Website.
Bidding runs until 28th November.
What’s it for?
The 12-month £50,000 fundraising challenge was launched in March 2015.
The plans are to raise enough funding – through events and donations as well as grants – to build a concrete skatepark at the site of the current wooden ramps at the eastern end of Ventnor esplanade.
If there’s nothing in the auction that takes your fancy but you’d still like to donate to the project you can do so via GoFundMe.
