Beautiful "SNOWFLAKES" are being auctioned to raise money for cancer research. For the last four years, snowflakes have been created by children's book illustrators for this annual auction, and thousands of dollars have been successfully raised. (I contributed a snowflake two years ago.) Check out this website to see the exciting array this year: Robert's Snow: for Cancer's Cure
I am proud to highlight five in particular because they are all by talented illustrators who have been in my class at SVA at one time or another - very cool!
