Thank you to everyone who participated in the Jonathan Art Foundation's 2020 online auction! Our “Celebration of California” Gala Dinner was cancelled at the last minute due to the pandemic, so we have created our first ever online auction to replace it.  Our entire Board of Directors would like to recognize JAF Board Director Elizabeth Van Denburgh and JAF Collections Manager Jennifer Gunlock, as well as Matthew Allnatt, COO of the Jonathan Club and his team, especially Club Maitre D' Paul Sherman, for producing this event.  To this list we must add the roster of 25 contributing artists whose work we can purchase and of course to you, our generous and enthusiastic financial supporters.

 

The Jonathan Art Foundation (JAF) is a 501(c)(3) registered foundation founded thirty-four years ago in 1986.  Its mission is the acquisition, preservation and display of art for the benefit of members of Jonathan Club and the general public at large.  We host docent-supported tours for the public and lend important works to museums and traveling art exhibitions.  To date, we have collected 19th and 20th century California plein air art, and we now have one of the preeminent collections on the West Coast.  Two 2019 acquisitions were Anna Hills’ Desert Gold and John Gamble’s Poppies and Lupines.  Also, we added to our collection of Contemporary and Modern art at the Jonathan Beach Club with a landmark acquisition of an Andy Warhol lithograph, Sunset.

 

Your support is what makes JAF possible.  You make our acquisitions possible, and you pay for the attendant ongoing expense of curating, preserving, and managing our collection.  So in conclusion, thank you so much for your patronage and generosity and for taking such an interest in what we do.
