I am convinced that supporting the arts makes for a more livable community, and calls for generosity, so I took part in the local Community Arts Center\u2019s Art-A-Thon<\/em> campaign<\/a> this spring.\"Art-A-Thon<\/a> The CAC funds summer art-camps for young people, plus many worthwhile programs to nurture personal creativity in every segment of a diverse community. As part of the Art-A-Thon,<\/em> I demonstrated my technique during a full day of arts activities<\/a> in downtown Danville, working on collage miniatures and putting the finishing touches on my contribution to the Art-full Affair<\/em> (the other big fundraising event this month, sponsored by the Arts Commission of Danville \/ Boyle County). More thoughts to come about To Peach Is Owed<\/a><\/em><\/strong>, my newest collage on structured panel.<\/p>\n

My sincere \u201cthank you\u201d to everyone who helped me reach my Art-A-Thon<\/em> goal<\/a>. Your generosity is an inspiration! The last time I looked, the Arts Center had exceeded its target by nearly 50%, and my \u201cteam\u201d landed in seventh place with $526 raised. Special appreciation to Katie Blake<\/a>, who sent a generous donation all the way from Alaska!<\/p>\n

I kept my nose to the collage grindstone all afternoon
at the local <\/em>Art-A-Thon<\/em> event on Saturday, May 13th,
and put some final touches on To Peach Is Owed,<\/em><\/strong> my
donation to the Art-full Affair<\/em> drawing for art scholarships.
