Also available to view and buy in an online gallery. This annual fundraiser provides necessary funding for the Library’s many vital programs and services. Various price points. All items for sale with 35% of proceeds going directly to the Library. This year, the art show is dedicated to celebrated artist Jimmy Grashow, whose support of the event and of the Mark Twain Library was - for over fifty years - as enthusiastically unwavering as the Library's founder himself.
