Your creativity can help animals in need! Art On Center is teaming up with the Humane Society & Shelter, South Coast to present an art exhibition and fundraiser to benefit the Humane Society. There are two ways to participate, and artists may choose either or both. Artists are invited to pick up a complimentary 8×8-inch canvas at Art On Center to create a work of art which will be displayed as a “mosaic wall of art,” says Art On Center’s director Stacey Frates. There is no entry fee for this option, and the proceeds from all sales of these little 8×8-inch jewels will be donated to the Humane Society.
Another way for artists to participate is to enter an artwork (of any size and medium) for an entry fee of $15 and subject to Art On Center’s 30% commission on sales; the artists may then elect to donate a portion of their sales to the Humane Society. The deadline for entries, which must be delivered to Art On Center, 15 Center Street, Fairhaven, MA, is 6:00 pm on Wednesday, June 1.
The opening reception is on Saturday, June 4 from 1:00 – 4:00 pm and the public is invited. There is ample free parking and the building is wheelchair accessible. The exhibition will run through the month of June, during which time pet food and supplies will also be collected for the Humane Society.
Both Art On Center and the Humane Society & Shelter, South Coast are 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations. For more information, please call 774-206-1709 or email info@artoncenter.org.
