Leigh Limehouse has worked for Anglin Smith Fine Art for over 13 years. During that time, she’s been the heart and soul of this gallery and an integral part of Charleston’s art community. So when her husband, Seph Limehouse, lost his five year battle to cancer in April at the age of 38, Anglin Smith Fine Art decided to join together with other local galleries to help Leigh and her family.
100% of the proceeds of this auction will go to the Ellen Limehouse Educational Fund—which will help pay for the education of Leigh and Seph’s four-year-old daughter, Ellen. Ellen—who is sweet, spunky, loving, and hilarious—has become as much as a part of our family as Leigh is.
These artists have generously donated a piece of their artwork for this sealed bid auction. Bids may be placed by filling out the form provided and dropping it into the sealed box below. Minimum bids begin at 1/3 of the retail price as it appears on the wall tag and the bids will be kept secret until July 31. The highest bidder will receive the artwork and be notified at that time. You are welcome to bid on more than one piece.
