I am super proud to be involved again this year in the Dallas Children's Advocacy Center'sArt and Advocacy fund raiser! I will be donating a major piece and ask those of you who have original work you are proud to show, to please consider participating too! Several of us did last year and it was truly rewarding!
"On Thursday, November 5th, the “sleek loft”* of Three Three Three First Avenue will buzz with close to 400 business leaders, community members and patrons of the arts for the 3rd annual ART + Advocacy: a silent and live art auction benefiting the Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center."Alan Peppard, Guide Live
Why support The ART + Advocacy auction works to emphasize the importance of art and its unique role in healing the child abuse victims served at the Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center while also providing support to the fundamental and life-changing programs at DCAC.
I am looking forward to making our community here at The Bonny Studio and at The Encaustic Center a force for positive change!
