Masks

It is said that we all have a mask or two that we use at times to hide our true feelings.  Or maybe we use them to protect ourselves from being hurt, either real or imagined.  No matter, masks are intriguing to us.  Masks also make up an entire category of art that spans generations and civilizations.  Masks tell us much about other people and other times.

I just learned about a great company called Masks Exhibition that ties masks and cause related giving together in a unique and powerful way.  Here is how they describe their purpose:

"Our fundraising concept is simple but powerful.  We produce an exhibition of clay masks that are designed by high profile celebrities.  The masks are shown along with paintings and prints from some of the most prominent artists in the world.  All the artwork is auctioned off and the proceeds from its sale are given to charitable causes."

"Behind every mask lies the beauty within."

A simple idea with an intriguing hook.  Check it out.
