This past weekend the Chicago Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation held their annual dinner gala, Steve Azzato, and Quiet Light Publishing donated two of his Limited Edition prints along with two of his books to their silent auction. We are delighted to tell you they brought in $1,800.00 for the foundation! One of Steve’s reason’s for doing this book was to donate to the JDRF and to the Susan G Komen Cancer Research Foundation. We are happy to say we have directly helped and we want to thank those who bid on these items! Steve called me on Sunday and told me the great news! My congratulations go out to him for producing such stunning work and for having the foresight to know that part of the projects goal was to donate to causes he believes in. This is also why many of the artists in the book donated their time to sit with Steve for the conversation and portrait. We thank them all as well!
Over the years Quiet Light Publishing has donated both our books and prints to several charities and schools in which we have a deep belief. For us, it is a matter of using our art to further someone else’s goals the best way we can. It is satisfying for us to know that in this small way we can help a cause we believe in do more for those they help. It is in the true spirit of this season we are proud to tell you about the accomplishments over the weekend for Steve’s work.
The Limited Edition Prints from the book, signed by both the musician and photographer will be online soon, so watch our blogs for their release date. They will all be limited to a maximum edition of 50 prints on archival fine art papers. Some will be available later this week. Stay tuned.
Peace & Congratulations again to Steve!
