On July 15th a bunch of great people got together to paint for a couple of hours, and raised $225 for the programs of Hope Cancer Resources. A local franchise of Painting with a Twist hosted a "Painting with a Purpose" fundraiser for us, and those of us who attended agreed it was definitely something we'll do again. We spent two hours visiting, laughing, playing music trivia games and even did a line-dance as a little break from all the amazing art-creating. Creating art can be hard work. They even have a bar in the studio to serve beverages (adult and otherwise). At the end of our two hours we all had a cute little painting to take home with us. What a deal! Thank you to everyone who joined us - we hope to see you again soon.
