Diplomatic Chairs, The Ambassador of Australia, His Excellency The Honorable Kim Beazley, AC & Ms. Susie Annus
The 8th Annual Transformer Silent Auction & Benefit Party held Friday, November 18, 2011 at the Corcoran Gallery of Art was a tremendous success!
Thank you to all of the participating Artists for including their work, our Host Committee and Chairs, all of our Sponsors, The Australian Embassy, and the Corcoran for making this our most successful fundraising event yet!
Through the generous support of all our Auction participants, Transformer raised substantial funds to support our Exhibition Series and Programs on behalf of emerging artists and the advancement of emergent expression in the visual arts.
