Community Supported Art Collections Available for Purchase
Cambridge Arts’ Community Supported Art program offers a once-a-year opportunity to art lovers. By purchasing an art 'share' you are collecting a series of original or limited edition artwork produced by artists based in Cambridge. This curated portfolio is perfect for your own personal collection, a gift or for a corporate art collection. A diverse range of beautiful, inspired artwork.
This award-winning program operates much like an agricultural CSA share – with a clever twist! Instead of enjoying a harvest share, Community Supported Art provides an opportunity to directly support local artists by purchasing original artwork made by a neighbor, friend and member of the Cambridge community.
Community Supported Art shares are a great way to build or start an art collection with affordably priced work from local artists. Shares are available in three sizes: small (3 works, $150), medium (6 works, $300), and large (9 works, $450). Shares are limited and are available for purchase now: www.csartcambridge.com/shop.
The 2016 collection features small works from Mireli Books, Marcia Cohen, Estelle Disch, Melissa Glick, Linda Haas, Janet Malenfant, Margarette Mattos, Anne Plaisance and Deidre Tao. Learn more about the artists at www.csartcambridge.com.
