kicker: Bidding helps doctors on the ground in Japan

Telluride local  and mosaic artist Flair Robinson, a regular instructor at the Ah Haa School for the Arts, is part of a group of artists participating in an online auction to benefit Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), whose extraordinary efforts have been showcased in the past locally at Mountainfilm in Telluride.

Bidding for the mosaic art opens April 1 and runs through April 27. DWB has teams on the ground in Japan, so bidding for their cause could make a difference.

Flair Robinson was recruited to participate by auction organizer and mosaic artist Lin Schorr. Schorr's online initiative involves 124 other artists from 12 countries and coincides with with a live exhibition at a local gallery in Michigan (The Northville Art House, Northville, MI.)
