Recycled Art Sale Returns for Its Fourth Year

Art lovers, treasure hunters, rejoice! The NCJW Recycled Art Sale is back!

The fourth annual event takes place at The Resale Shop (294 N. Lindbergh) on Thursday, April 4, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., with a VIP Preview Night on Wednesday, April 3, from 4 to 7 p.m.

Chairing the event this year are Phyllis Langsdorf and Peggy Remis. Langsdorf conceived the idea of the charity art sale for NCJW several years ago when a  friend, who had recently inherited 30 paintings from her mother, asked for advice about donating the artwork. Since then, the event has grown to include more than 200 pieces of original signed and numbered prints, paintings, sculpture and more.

“Expect to find a wonderful assortment of artwork,” Langsdorf said. “We expect Preview Night will be very busy, but because we have over 200 pieces of art, there will still be plenty to choose from on the fourth, which is free and open to the public.”

Among the highlights: a Marc Chagall original and a five-piece collection of New Orleans Mardi Gras signed serigraphs by Mel Wiken. There is something for everyone, with art pieces priced from $15 to $500 each.

Tickets to the April 3rd VIP Preview Night are $18 each and include a wine and cheese reception. They can be purchased online by visiting theresaleshop.org or at the door. The event opens to the public the following day, on April 4, free of charge.

The Recycled Art Sale has become a signature annual fundraiser for the National Council of Jewish Women St. Louis, with proceeds benefiting women, children and families in the community.
