CAF is pulling an all-nighter for this 2nd annual, unique 24-hour drawing extravaganza!  For only $5, you are invited to join us at this event, where you can watch artists and dabblers drawing and making art, and even participate in the fun! All drawings made will be sold to the public at one of four affordable prices ($25, $75, $150, and $300 plus tax); proceeds will be divided among the drawers and CAF.  Drawing is broadly interpreted and works by artists of all disciplines, skill levels, and ages will grace the walls throughout the 24-hour event, so drop by more than once to see it all unfold or scoop up that one-of-a-kind work.  In addition, 3-D, Exquisite Corpse, community drawing sculptures for everyone to doodle on will be set up in the gallery.
