Annual Christmas Party at the Boardwalk- with the Blues DeVille!
Saturday December 17th is the official date of the Annual Boardwalk Christmas Party! This years celebrations will be in conjunction with a fundraiser organized by former manager Brittainy Heisler. Some of you know that teaching art is Brittainy’s passion- and she needs your help to get closer to her goal for necessary renovations to our Children’s Art Gallery and studio located in Parma! Two years ago we accepted this donated space- We started out with just a few students, and this fall 209 children registered for classes! But the carpet is severely stained and bubbling creating a hazard. The toilet is broken. There are no windows and no a/c, creating some toasty summers. Only 1 of the 6 outlets works. The ceiling is leaky and has damaged some art on the walls. Currently we teach over 700 children in elementary schools and community centers in addition to our gallery students- we need shelving to store all of that inventory! We also launched adult drawing classes and need a wall to separate the space so that we can facilitate children and adult classes at once. We’ve done well making it as presentable as possible out of pocket the past two years but with the continuing growth of students and successful teaching in this location its time to step things up.
For a $10 donation - you will enjoy
