SEE! You're thinking of all kinds of great ideas and people. Definitely use the art appraiser, and your silent auction involvements are great. I really don't see why you wouldn't have as good a chance as anyone.

An art education isn't always all that its cracked up to be. I learned some skills, but also, so much of the time I was thoroughly confused by what many of my teachers were telling me. That is, if they talked with me at all. Much of what I learned came after I graduated. Also keep in mind the grant people are looking to award it to a worthy artist, not one with an impressive resume. A fancy resume does not guarantee instant success of any kind. Your work ethic does.

Go for it Mary, and whatever happens keep your spirits high.
