THE THINKING FUND NEWS 2023

ONLINE AUCTION

“The silent bid format allows each bidder to submit a single bid for each lot. All the bids remain secret until after the close of the auction on 30 April when all bids are opened, and the highest bid determined for each lot. If there is more than one bid at the highest amount for any lot, then the bid that was submitted first will be deemed to be the winner.

This year the barn owl was selected for being the most widely distributed species of owl in the world and one of the most widespread of all species of birds, including Africa’s African Grass-Owl (Tyto capensis) and the Madagascan Red Owl (Tyto soumagnei). There are nearly 35 species of barn owls, and they are all different in colour – allowing tremendous scope for artistic creativity.” – by Lunice Johnson from Gauteng Lifestyle Magazine

ADOPT A STUDENT

We are excited to announce that our Team, in partnership with the Academy of Digital Art has sponsored our 2022 Bursary Student, Brandon Botes, for a second year.

He is studying a year course in Web-Design at the Academy.

We celebrate him for his hard work, commitment and value him as an Ambassador of our cause, setting a standard of excellence for all of those to follow.

Thank you to all our Owl Artists for your contributions, in time, skills, materials and support to make this year a success, but also for helping us provide Brandon with the building blocks for a better future.

The exhibition of The Thinking Fund 2023 Owl Art will be take place on the 1st and 2nd of April 2023, at Candice Berman Fine Art Gallery and the funds raise through the Online Auction will go toward supporting Brandon and other students at the Academy.
