Art school to hold annual sale

Students can get a head start on Christmas shopping at the school of art’s 13th annual “deflation sale.”

The sale will be held Thursday and Friday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Visual Art Building’s Gallery 200.

“The sale is a way for art students to sell their work,” art Professor Bob Bornhuetter said. The items for sale include prints, paintings, drawings, fibers, jewelry, and ceramics. The prices range from $3 to $200.

When the first sale was held there was heavy inflation, and because the items were sold at reduced prices the art school called the sale a “deflation sale,” Bornhuetter said.

“Past sales have been pretty good and there are some really good deals,” he said.
