About the Event
The Marblehead Festival of Arts, in partnership with the family of Dr. Edward Joseph Robinson, is proud to announce the auction of his collection of Festival logo art and sculptures.
The auction will kick off with a First Look at Abbot Hall on Friday, March 6 from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm, and will run through Sunday, April 7. Bidding will take place online (link to follow).
All proceeds from the auction will fund a scholarship for a student going into the medical field.
Dr. Robinson was an avid fan of the Festival and collected 34 logos and other Festival memorabilia from 1983 to 2010, framed by Arnould Gallery.
Additionally, the Robinson family has donated seven sculptures by Beverly Benson Seamans, an esteemed New England sculptor and granddaughter of John Prentiss Benson.
A sampling of pieces that will be up for auction can be found below.
