Gavel Art Auction is a charitable arm of IT Risk Managers, Inc. The Gavel Art website was established in 2010 to raise funds for charity and to commemorate IT Risk Managers' 10 years in business. Our charity of choice is St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Gavel art pieces can be commissioned by individuals, associations, businesses and other organizations to be auctioned as a fundraiser. The proceeds of the sale are then donated to St. Jude's or to the organization's charity of choice.

Larry Harb is an accomplished artist and art collector. He studied oil painting at the Oak Park Art League in Oak Park, IL and was a member of the Union League Club of Chicago Art Committee, acquiring and deaccessing art for their world renowned art collection for 10 plus years. In addition to the money raised at auction, Harb will also donate a portion of his profit from the commissioned art.

If you would like to commission a gavel art piece, contact Larry Harb here.
