Therese Basha Jarjoura was in for a shock when bidders were attempting to buy her work of art that was up for display during an art show. She told bidders her art was not for sale during that time, but then opened it up for auction starting at $1,200. Bidding finished at $11,500 for the charity auction.
Jarjoura is planning on getting her Associate’s degree in Fine Arts and will transfer to get her Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts upon her completion.
