Bid on Art Works by Koons, Schnabel and More to Benefit Henry Street
By Henry Street Settlement
Twenty-five exciting art works — including pieces by preeminent artists Jeff Koons, Julian Schnabel, Dan Colen and Richard Prince — will be sold at auction to benefit youth programs at Henry Street’s Boys & Girls Republic (BGR). Organized by the Dash Snow Initiative, the auction began online November 27 and will culminate in a live event on December 5 during Art Basel Miami.
The unique project is designed to honor the late artist Dash Snow’s legacy by giving back to the most vulnerable youth in BGR’s community, a neighborhood with significant meaning in Snow’s life. The Initiative will support BGR youth programs with enhanced educational and social services.
