Rothko Sunset, 2007 by Valerie Hegarty
On Saturday, February 6th from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m., team 20x200 will be at the Brooklyn Museum for a Target First Saturday event with 1stfans — won't you join us? We'll be giving away 10"x8" prints by artist Valerie Hegarty to new and renewing 1stfans members and Ms. Jen Bekman herself will be speaking to an intimate group of 1stfans at a meetup. Meetups are an opportunity for 1stfans to interact exclusively with the Museum's staff, its collections, artists, and other members every month at Target First Saturdays.
20x200 has been collaborating with 1stfans founders, Shelley Bernstein and Will Cary, and artist Valerie Hegarty over the last few months to produce this unique benefit edition. For the first time ever, collectors will be able to pick up a print in person and become a 1stfans member all for the ridiculously affordable cost of $20! 1stfans is the Brooklyn Museums's socially networked membership. Valerie Hegarty and 20x200 have donated the prints for this event.
If you can't make it to the event, you'll have another chance to pick up one of Valerie's prints plus the 1stfans membership. We'll release the prints in two larger sizes, 11"x14" and 16"x20," the following week on 20x200. Every print from Valerie's edition will include a one-year membership to 1stfans and the proceeds from the print will benefit the Brooklyn Museum as well. The prints are gorgeous and we think they'll go fast, make sure you're signed up for Jen's newsletter to get first dibs on one!
