Eco-Art FAQ

What is Eco-Art?

Eco-Art incorporates at least one of the “4 R’s” (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Repair) 

What is the deadline to submit art?

Please let us know you'd like to submit no later than Friday, 10/20/2023. Your artwork needs to be delivered to the Groundwork Lawrence office at 50 Island Street, Suite 101, Lawrence, by Monday, 10/30/2023.

When is Glow Gala?

This year’s Glow Gala will be held on Thursday, November 16, 2023 and we'll be celebrating 20 Years of Green Team!

Do I have to fill out a registration form?

Yes, in order for your piece to be in the auction, you must submit a registration form along with your artwork.

Will I receive the full bid amount for my artwork?

We believe it is important that the work of the artist be recognized and the time to create it appreciated. Our Glow Gala is, however, our signature fundraising event, so we split the proceeds with the artist 50/50. Should you choose to do so, you may donate the full bid amount to GWL, but it is not our expectation.

What is a good minimum bid price for my artwork?

We suggest a minimum bid of $75 or under.

What kind of artwork has been submitted in the past?

Anything and everything made from eco-friendly materials or representing an environmental theme. This includes artwork made from shredded catalogues, lamps made from “rescued roadside treasures,” paintings on used/discarded furniture, lanterns made from reclaimed wood, and sculptures from reclaimed metal and tools. Check out this photo album to see examples of past eco-art. We encourage you to use your imagination to help promote Groundwork Lawrence’s environmental mission!
