Celebrity Art Auction Raising Funds for Epilepsy

I guess that once one becomes a celebrity, that if one also has some other artistic talents, such as being able to paint, one can sell such works and people will want to buy them. Why not use celebrity to raise money for a worthy cause. How one judges the artistic value of a celebrity’s paintings is another thing. Either way, artistic value is in the eye of the beholder, and is generally irrelevant to the benefit it can bring to a worthy cause.

Hollywood’s Helping Hands is one such celebrity silent art auction raising money to benefit UCLA’s Pediatric Epilepsy Project. This auction (at just $175 per ticket, if purchased in advance) includes…”over one hundred works of original celebrity art, including paintings by Jennifer Garner, Sylvester Stallone and David Schwimmer.”

Helping others is always a good thing. Everyone does it in the best way they know how.
