Chihuly Creates Limited Edition St. Pete's Sunny Baskets Print Series Exclusively for the Arts Center

Where: The Arts Center, 719 Central Ave., St. Pete, FL

Celebrating yet another milestone in the unique partnership between famed glass artist Dale Chihuly and the Arts Center, we are proud to announce the creation of an exclusive Dale Chihuly intaglio print series entitled St. Pete's Sunny Baskets. Available only through the Arts Center, these 74 vibrant pieces represent history in the making as we embark on one of St. Petersburg's most exciting cultural endeavors.

Created exclusively for and sold solely at the Arts Center, proceeds from the sale of St. Pete's Sunny Baskets will benefit educational programming and future Arts Center education initiatives. The 22.5" x 29.75" intaglio prints are $2,200 unframed or can be ordered with a frame of your choosing.

In August 2005, Dale Chihuly and the Arts Center announced plans for the Chihuly Collection at the Arts Center, a 6,000 s.f. permanent exhibition devoted to the artist's work. The Chihuly Collection at the Arts Center will be one component of the Art Village, a $200 million residential and retail development anchored by a new 62,000 s.f. Arts Center. The development, upon completion in July 2008, will feature one of the largest glass centers in the Southeast United States.
