@artaxis.bsky.socialSneak peek at one of the pieces in this year's Artaxis Benefit! The sale opens Tuesday, October 20th. Our member artists donated work to support Artaxis, and we're so grateful. Every sale helps keep Artaxis free and accessible for artists, students, and educators around the world.
