Back in January of 2011 I represented WHS at a 'gift suite' right before the Golden Globe Awards.  It was a fun couple days at a swanky hotel just off Sunset in LA, meeting a variety of celebrities from film and television and introducing them (in most cases) to my work and to this category of functional art.  This event also offered a rare chance for me to design and deliver a charity concept that would allow WH to give back in meaningful ways, while also expanding our audience.  Today marks the online 'launch' of that idea!

I decided to make a special 25 piece limited edition pen to celebrate the Golden Globes and to honor nominees and recipients - and I kept back the original (#01/25) prototype.  At the event in LA, I had every celebrity in attendance (about 70 very cool folks) use that prototype pen to sign a special poster frame I brought along for the occasion.  That original signed frame now outlines a poster comprised of photos of everyone who signed!  It is a one-of-a-kind piece of memorabilia, of both Hollywood and WHS, and it is being auctioned along with our original #01 Golden Globes pen with all proceeds to benefit The Lopez Foundation.

The pen, valued at $2000.00, is exquisite; the poster (framed by signatures) is a real treasure, and the whole package was conceived and created by WHS and donated to The Lopez Foundation in support of their excellent work on behalf of children’s health issues.
