826NYC is a nonprofit organization here in Brooklyn, “dedicated to supporting students ages 6-18 with their creative and expository writing skills, and to helping teachers inspire their students to write.” More here. This month 826NYC is holding a fundraising auction, “The Tell Tale Art Auction.” The request was for spooky or Halloween-themed art. I went the owl route, digging into the archives (archives = piles) for a drawing of Mr. Ocax from Avi’s Poppy. Why not buy it? Or just check out the offerings from Dav Pilkey, Mo Willems, Lane Smith, Adam Rex, Fiona Robinson, Scott C., Sara Varon, Paul O. Zelinsky, Steven Weinberg, Peter Brown, Frank Viva, Brett Helquist, Tony DiTerlizzi, Daniel Salmieri, Dave Shannon, and everyone’s favorite, Many More. All on the auction site, here. (And a direct link to the piece above is here.)
