This year the annual NKBA Rocky Mountain Chapter Winter Gala will feature a fundraising auction (Lavs & Loos) supporting the arts in education in the form of scholarships benefiting students at the Art Institute of Colorado as a way to give back to our communities.  Lavs & Loos is an auction of one-of-a-kind hand painted and glazed toilets and sinks showcasing the talents and imagination from serveral local artists who have provided their amazing skills to embellish these one-of-a-kind pieces of art.

In addition to our live auction of Lavs & Loos, see the list below of additional items that will be sold in silent auction;

Private cooking class for 12 from Chef, Elise Wiggins at Panzano’s Restaurant;
Weekend in southern Colorado to spend a day off-roading to the Dunes;
Personal chef to cook 3 course meal at your home;

private dinner at a renowned Denver designer's home; signature jewelry by local artist;  
Gift Certificates; plus much MORE and of course our fabulous Lavs & Loos!

Consumers are more demanding than ever, and the biggest source of conflict is about fees.  Have you ever lost a job because your time bills were shockingly high?  Have you discounted your bills because you were afraid your clients would be upset…taking money out of your pocket?      What about your clients that are shopping on the Internet and when they find similar items for less money they think you are greedy and you lose their trust?     What do you do?  How do you deal with these challenges and keep your business healthy?     Gail will share the 10 biggest mistakes interior designers make with fees and how you can avoid them. 

Gail is a seasoned speaker, motivator and interior design business educator.  She inspires and engages her audience with no-nonsense marketing and business strategies to immediately improve interior designer’s businesses.    Gail’s global audience of thousands of interior designers rave about the quality of the advice and information she delivers.

Our local chapter has embarked on a fundraiser called Lavs & Loos, to support Arts in Education.    We wanted to create an event that will heighten the awareness of the local NKBA chapter to consumers and with the Denver Art & Design community.  We wanted this event to be a way for our Chapter to “give back” to the community and to give artists a fun and creative venue to showcase their talents while encouraging synergy between the art community and designers.

 

The recipient for this year will be the Art Institute of Colorado.  We selected this educational institution because they have an NKBA accredited program.

 

If you have heard about paint the cows, horses, goats etc., then you will understand our intent with Lavs & Loos.  We have received donated toilets and sinks, and are gathering up artists to apply their magic touch in enhancing these white porcelain treasures. 

The artistic Lavs & Loos will be auctioned off at our Gala  scheduled for December 1 at the Walker Fine Art Gallery in the Golden Triangle Art District.

This presentation will guide you through the changes in history that altered our personal hygiene rituals.  We will learn how those rituals shaped the products we use today.
