September, 2011

In September The Artist's Network
joined their neighbors,
The Purple Cow and Chamber's Walk
in hosting a fundraising event for

”Christine’s Hope for Kids”

 

Christine's Hope was founded as a tribute to a youngHopewell woman, Christine Gianacaci, who was killed during the Haiti earthquake doing what she loved most—helping children. Her parents created Christine's Hope in an effort to carry on their daughter's work by aiding underprivileged children in the US. You can read more about it here: www.christineshope.org

The show, appropriately entitled "Hope," was inspiring. But, more inspiring are the needs that will be met for many children as a result of the monies raised, at our Silent Auction and other fund-raising activites, at this event.

It was a great turn-out and a beautiful night. Music from a folk-jam with Beau and friends floated through the air in the alley between the Gallery and The Purple Cow. And, the smells of delicious food wafted from a Chamber's Walk Tent out back. Artists donated works for the Silent Auction benefiting Christine's Hope.

Thanks to all who helped make this event a very special one!

"Summer Camp Art Show"

The Summer Camp Art Show in August was a lot of fun!. We displayed a sampling of all the wonderful art created by our Summer Campers. The kids enjoyed seeing their art in the gallery. The dogs were delish, and the chocolate and cookies abundant. Thanks to everyone who came, thanks to Fireman Pau’'s Firehouse Dogs for the hotdogs, and many thanks goes to our wonderful Art Instructors who made the gallery such a fun place to be this summer!

"Spring at Last"

In conjunction with the May Second Saturday Reception,
LMS Artists Network Sponsored the Meadowgate Alpaca
Farm for the Historic House Tour

The Artists Network was happy to sponsor the Meadowgate Alpaca
Farm as part of the Lawrenceville Main Street 6th Biennial House Tour. The farm is located at 3071 Lawrenceville Road and was one of the 6 houses featured on the tour. Artists participated in Plein Air painting around the farm, and curated a show of cooperative artist's works for one of the Barns. It was a wonderful experience for both the artists and we believe for the owners of the farm as well. The House Tour was well attended and many came from there to visit the gallery for the opening Reception of our new show: "Spring At Last," on view now until June 5th.

See more pictures of the Alpaca Farm
and Barn Show here.
