Yadkin Valley Art for Homes

From Upper Yadkin Valley Habitat for Humanity, it’s…

Art For Homes

Upper Yadkin Valley Habitat for Humanity is celebrating its 20th year building homes in the Yadkin Valley. In this gala year, local artists have transformed items from our resale store, the Habitat Home Shoppe. Now this one-of-a-kind art will be auctioned at our birthday/volunteer appreciation/ART for HOMES party & celebration

As part of our celebration of our 20th year, Upper Yadkin Valley Habitat for Humanity invited local artists to select items from the Habitat Home Shoppe to transform from purely functional to fantastic. The items when completed were to be sold as a fundraiser.
And now that time is here! Take a look at the wildly wonderful creations shown on our website www.UYVhabitat.org , stop by the Home Shoppe or call our office at 336-526-2277, and place your bid.Final bids will be taken at our ART for HOMES, birthday party, and Volunteer Appreciation celebration:

Saturday, March 7, 2009
6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Habitat Home Shoppe
102 East Market Street, Elkin, NC

Hors d’oeuvres and beverages will be served.
Complimentary tickets for Habitat artists, donors, and volunteers may be picked up at the Home Shoppe any time before the party.
Tickets are also available at the door for $10 per person.

We look forward to seeing you!

And, of course, sorry about my stupid shadow there in the middle of that last picture. I though about cropping it out, but didn't want to crop out any of the wonderful pottery!

And a few more pictures :)

More Pictures!

Pictures

Just a few of the pictures I took on Saturday- more to come, I promise :) I also may be getting some of the pictures that other people took, which will be a lot of fun.

Unfortunately, I do not have the sort of encyclopediac brain that knows who each and every wonderful artist represented here is- so if you see some of your work on here and want me to post your name and contact information along with the image, just email me, or leave it in the comments- something!

Love and hugs,
Kellie

The Show went wonderfully....

thank you to all of the Whimsicals who came, to all of our marvelous customers who came, and to Sunflower galleries for hosting!

Reminder!

Tell everyone, print this out and pass it around, and make sure you come yourselves!
