Hi Folks, The Lincoln METCO Coordinating Committee’s ongoing fundraiser, Downsize for Diversity, recently received a stunning donation of 11 valuable Inuit sculptures from Canada, the Northwest Territories and the Arctic Circle. The donation came from the daughter of the original owner along with all of the paperwork, artist’s biographies, gallery information, and original purchase price of each piece. I do know a little bit about Inuit sculpture however I am seeking someone with expertise to assist me (be a second set of eyes) with researching the current valuation and with setting prices. Given the value of this collection I need to get it right the first time! This would be unpaid volunteer work. If you have the knowledge, love Inuit sculpture, and would like to help Lincoln METCO, please contact me directly at 617-645-9059.
Please do NOT contact me about purchasing these pieces as we are still officially shut down for selling for COVID safety. We will start up again in the coming weeks. Thank you.
