<p>My daughter is in high school and every year they hold an auction to benefit the photography department. Artwork she and others in the program have done throughout the year are put up for bid. My daughter’s work has rasied A LOT of money for the program the past three years. There are often bidding wars on favored pieces and they end up selling for hundreds of dollars. I see absolutely nothing wrong with this, the arts are so underfunded they have to make up the difference somehow.</p>
