Members of The Art Guild (and non-members) are asked to be part of the Third Art From the Heart, a holiday fundraiser to benefit The Art Guild’s Education Fund on exhibit from Friday, Dec. 4 through Sunday, Jan. 3, 2016.
The Art Guild supplies the 10×10 wooden panels, free, to member artists to create one-of-a-kind artworks in the medium of their choice. Past works have included collage, mosaic, photography, as well as oil, acrylic and watercolors. (Non-members are welcome to join The Art Guild, or pay $10 for the panel.) Artists may stop and pick up a panel during gallery hours, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 1:00-5:00 PM.
Each unique piece will be sold for $100 and will make a great gift for that special someone this holiday season. The proceeds from this fundraiser go toward the Guild’s Education Fund, which awards scholarships to high school students pursuing careers in the arts, as well as other education related events.
The opening of the sale, artists’ reception, and holiday party will take place on Friday, Dec. 4 from 6 to 9 p.m. The exhibit and reception are free and open to the public.
The gallery is open on Wednesday, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 1 to 5 p.m. or by calling 516-304-5797 for additional hours.
