Y’art Sale - September 20th

We’re holding our first "Y'art Sale” - A Children's Art Education Fundraising Party" on Saturday, September 20th. Every penny goes towards our Children's Art Education program. For every $2500 we raise, we can offer another After School Art Club for our budding student artists!

The sale runs 4:00 - 7:00 pm on the gallery’s front lawn, and features a large selection of pre-loved works of art for sale , a raffle, music, fine wine, finger food, and great conversation. Also, starting September 3rd, you can preview the art during regular gallery hours and participate in a silent auction for several pieces of art including a signed Salvador Dali etching. Please join us for this wonderful event.

The Message, staring Anthony Quinn & Irene Papas has fantastic acting, the music won an academy award, and the cinematography, filmed in Morocco and Libya, is beautiful. Costumes are cool and there’s a few scenes with a set of ancient bagpipes for you Celtic history buffs. The fact that this is the only substantial film about Mohammed and Islam makes the film worthwhile viewing. It is an accurate portrayal of the birth of Islam as most people today understand it. Question and answer session.
Join us for a movie and dinner: Beef, chicken & veggie burgers available, with chips, drink and cookie.
Donation for food requested

Beginners as well as those with experience are welcome. In addition to doing exercises in class, we will look at great drawings of the past to discern the elements that make up their beauty. I will be available to offer guidance and direction as needed, and even homework if you desire.
