Our thanks to Erika Tsang of Toronto who is organizing "Eyes On Tibet", a fundraising event for Seva's eye care programs in Tibet. "Eyes on Tibet" is a  silent auction event featuring the works of dozens of artists. Artists will be provided with a pair of generously donated eye-glasses and asked to create a piece which will be entirely up to their own creativity - they may be functional, sculptural or something totally unexpected. Each piece will then be auctioned of at the event with 100% of the proceeds going directly to Seva Canada's Tibet Sight Program.
