San Bernardino, CA – The local AAF-Inland Empire is hosting a student art auction to benefit its scholarship program on Thursday evening, May 11 at Cal State San Bernardino, 6-9pm.The second annual event will be held on campus at the Robert and Frances Fullerton Museum of Art. This year’s theme, “When Art and Advertising Collide,” invites students to create a piece of art on blank canvasses that the Ad Club donated to student artists around the Inland Empire. The art pieces will be auctioned at The Art Bash.

The event is hosted by the Inland Empire Chapter of the American Advertising Federation (AAF). Proceeds will benefit winning students and the Ad Club academic scholarship program. Bidding for art pieces at the silent auction begins at $25. Admission for the evening is $10 for Ad Club members and $15 for the general public. A wine bar and appetizers are included.
