FSU Sponsoring Marlin Art Auction Oct. 21
Fairmont State and Fairmont General Hospital are sponsoring the Gala Art Auction to
benefit Main Street Fairmont on Saturday, Oct. 21.
The preview begins at 6:30 p.m., and the auction begins at 7:30 p.m. at the Fairmont
Field Club. Tickets are $15 per person. Hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar will be provided.
For tickets or more information, call Vera Sansalone at 366-0468 or Barbara Wise at

"Even if you think you might not bid on art, your attendance at the event benefits
Main Street Fairmont," Sansalone said.
The event will be a fun, interactive evening with finger foods and music. All art
to be auctioned is framed, and prices will range from $50 up. Some original works
and many lithographs and gliclees will be available. There will also be some estate
jewelry, painted furniture and sports memorabilia. Marlin Art will present a Family
Heirloom Program that can turn any photograph into a hand-finished canvas work. Major
credit cards will be accepted.
Some of the artists with works to be included in the auction are Neiman, Zule, Delacroix,
Tarkay, Rockwell, Lui, Picasso and a new Italian artist, Borelli. Specific artwork
may be requested by calling the Main Street Fairmont office at 366-0468. For more
