FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Medinah, IL, August, 2019

Cassy Tully Artwork Featured at 2019 BMW Championship

Artist Cassy Tully has created original artwork for the 2019 BMW Championship featuring the iconic clubhouse at Medinah Country Club, which is hosting the tournament August 13-18.

Medinah Country Club is one of the most prominent, yet member-friendly, private country clubs in the United States, playing host to numerous major championships and prestigious international golf events, including the 2012 Ryder Cup, two PGA Championships and three U.S. Open events

An 18 X 24” poster of Cassy’s clubhouse painting will be available for $25 each in the merchandise tent throughout BMW Championship week at Medinah. Also available will be her Collectors Edition hand-painted ornaments, signed and dated for $50 each, featuring exquisite texture using sand from Medinah’s golf course.

Additionally, an enhanced print on canvas of the clubhouse painting will be auctioned off during a private charity event at the club on August 12, with a portion of sale proceeds benefiting the Evans Scholars Foundation.

“My painting, posters and ornaments celebrate the BMW Championship through capturing the history and character of Medinah Country Club,” Cassy said. “I am also honored to work with the Western Golf Association and help support the Evans Scholars Foundation through their Caddies for College event.” 

Cassy will be in the merchandise tent from August 13 - 18 to sign posters, personalize ornaments and meet with fans.

For more than 90 years, Medinah’s majestic clubhouse has become one of the most recognizable sites in all of golf; it is now captured on canvas by Cassy’s signature relief-painting technique. She utilizes acrylic gel mediums and sand from the golf course to manipulate paint like clay, increasing the level of relief and illusion of perspective.

Cassy Tully Rallies to Reduce Heart Disease and Stroke Through the AHA's Life Is Why We Give™ Campaign

Cassy is joining in the fight against heart disease and stroke alongside the American Heart Association, the world’s leading voluntary health organization devoted to building a world of longer, healthier lives. Throughout the Spring months, Cassy will be participating in Life Is Why We Give™, the American Heart Association’s fundraising campaign.

“I am inspired to be joining the American Heart Association in their fight to make Milwaukee a healthier community. Their lifesaving mission impacts everyone,” Cassy said.

To support this worthwhile mission, now through May 31, 2019, Cassy will offer prints of Homeward, the painting she created live at this year’s Heart & Stroke Ball. A percentage of Homeward’s print sales will be donated to the American Heart Association. Visit Cassy’s online shop to purchase your Homeward print. Each signed, commemorative 12 X 16” print is $50. Signed prints will be available for purchase in Cassy’s studio during the Historic Third Ward’s Gallery Night and Day, April 26 & 27.

“The American Heart Association is committed to fighting heart disease and stroke and improving the quality of life for all Americans,” said American Heart Association Board Chairman James Postl. “Our work would not be possible without the generous support of committed companies like these who provide donation opportunities to their customers. These corporate citizens provide a force multiplying impact to our work and help us get ever closer to a world without needless suffering or death.”

As the leading source of non-government funded cardiovascular science, the Association has invested more than $3.7 billion in scientific research and discovery since 1949. The organization trains approximately 2 million high school graduates in CPR every year and has reduced cardiovascular disease mortality by 70 percent since 1968. 

In addition to contributing to saving lives through Cassy’s print sales, donations may be made directly to the Association at www.lifeiswhy.org/donate. To learn more about the Life Is Why We Give™ campaign and to find other participating companies, visit heart.org/lifeiswhywegive.
