Thanks to everyone for support of Art with Heart

We had a great time at Art with Heart yesterday! We weren't sure what the attendance might be given the new location, but it was very good... We were able to sell, sell, sell and talk, talk, talk. Plus, and this is very important, we raised money to support The Children's Village at Christian City.

Given the fact that we put this show together in under a month it was especially sweet... lots of giving people, great artists, wonderful support from the media and all of our friends and supporters. Special thanks to the Harvest Community Center for their support --- they donated the use of their building (the original Fayetteville theater from way back when). They cleaned up after us, too!

Andrea Boswell, potter extraordinaire, decided the night before the show to put together some pottery packages. She donated the packages to be sold to benefit The Children's Village. 100% of the money from their sale went into the bowl for the Village. Artists are such generous people, aren't they? A large number of artists at the show donated a portion of their sales to the cause, too.

We're going to make this an annual event, expect next year to be even bigger and better (we'll have more than a month to work on it!).

I'm working on a slide show of the art, will pop it on the blog later. I'm kind of in 'decompress' mode at the moment, always need a day after a show just to chill.

We're already working on two more shows so subscribe, follow, watch us!

Art with Heart February 5th

We're excited about our new fine arts and crafts show, Art with Heart! It's going to be held in the Harvest Community Center in downtown Fayetteville on Saturday, February 5th. 10 - 4 p.m.

We have some extremely talented artists signed up to show, and sell, their fantastic art. Jewelry, fiber art, pottery, paintings, ornaments, stained glass and much, much more.

We're going to be collecting money to help support the children at The Children's Village at Christian City also. We'll have donation bins around the area with information for those who would like to give. It's entirely voluntary and no pressure at all.
