Animation and FX
Art Charity Event
(by digitalmediafx.com) On September 23 and 24, 2001, from 10:00 a.m.
- 4:00 p.m., St. Hubert's Catholic Church in Chanhassen will be hosting
The Hearts of Hope Foundation's Animation Art Charity Event to help abandoned
and orphaned children in Romania.
At this event, which
is free to the public, attendees will be able to purchase limited edition
signed lithographs of the dinosaurs from the movie Jurassic Park III,
and original animation art used to make movies such as Return to Oz, Pinocchio
and The Real Ghostbusters, Flash Gordon, Alvin and the Chipmunks and many
more. Prices will range from $50 for animation cells, to $80.00 for a
set of nine lithographs of dinosaurs, representing more than a 40% discount
from art gallery prices where these items sell for $100 - $400 each.
The proceeds from
this event will help provide shelter, food and medical attention for children
who stand a 1 in 2 chance of surviving to their 13th birthday.
"We are pleased
to offer this original animation art to help raise funds for the abandoned
children of Romania. The art was produced by talented animators in Hollywood
and is all one-of-a-kind. They should bring a smile to every child,"
says Herman Rush, the ex-CEO of Columbia Pictures, who helped make this
event possible.
St. Hubert's Catholic
Church is located at 8201 Main Street in Chanhassen. For directions or
to find out more about the event, please call The Hearts of Hope Foundation
at 612-919-3570

From movie studio executives to producers, agents and publicists, the
town's players switched into soul-searching as the flow of dealmaking

attacks..."
