Former Port Coquitlam artist Gerry Thompson will donate the proceeds from a silent auction for her original painting to the Silk Art Gallery.

Thompson told The Tri-City News the donation to the Port Moody gallery is her way of saying thanks to gallery owner and curator Zoe Royer and her husband, Gaetan Royer, for saving her artwork during the fire on PoMo’s Gallery Row in July.

The silent auction closes Oct. 16 at 7 p.m.

To place a bid on the acrylic work, which measures 36 by 36 inches, visit the gallery at 2419 Clarke St.
