On Monday, April 7, 2008 at 6:00 pmPST we are launching our first non-profit online auction to raise funds for the startup of the first Dichroic art museum. The link to our auction will be live on Monday at 6:00 PM PST from this same page. All profits from the sales of these art pieces goes directly to The Museum of Dichroic Art. In the over ten years that Coatings by Sandberg has been in business, they have steadily amassed an amazing collection of Dichroic artwork from around the world. Over time a variety of artists have also donated their works to CBS, leading to the idea of a Dichroic Art Museum to showcase and display the myriad of spectacular art glass to the public. The Museum of Dichroic ARt is currently l ocated in the lobby of the CBS facility in Orange, CA and is thought to be the largest known collection of Dichroic Art Glass in the world. The current collection features everything from small beads to large wall pieces and everything "Dichroic" in between. As a Non-Profit organization, MODA will be holding this auction from April 7 - 13, 2008 to raise funds for start up costs. The various pieces of artwork in this auction were donated by some of our generous and loyal artists who have been with CBS since the inception of Dichroic into the art glass world. The auction features unique individual pieces and would be a fantastic gift vor collectors or anyone who appreciates the beauty of Dichroic glass. For more information, visit modaglass.com. The museum is open to the public by appointment only.
