| "The Art Of Giving" Event Lends Helping Hand to R.I.C.H. House |
| |
Tampa, FL October 27, 2009 - What: Local artists will host a silent auction to benefit the Resources in Community Hope (R.I.C.H.) House.
When: 11/14/09 from 6: - 9 p.m.
Where: The Creative Native Gallery, 5307 N. Falkenburg Road, Tampa 33610
Details: Featured artists from The Creative Native Art Gallery have designed and created unique nutcrackers that will be auctioned to benefit the Tampa Police Department-sponsored R.I.C.H. House. This effort is to further support the Department’s outreach efforts helping children and their families in the Sulphur Springs community.
If you are unable to come to the event you can still help. Stop by and see the nutcrackers that have been finished and are on display. You may pre-bid on your favorite nutcrackers during regular hours the week before the event.
Get in the holiday spirit early by supporting this worthy cause. 100% of the funds collected from the nutcracker silent auction items will be donated to the R.I.C.H. House.
The Creative Native Gallery is housed in a 1940s era Florida bungalow, where each room has its own unique character and flair. The gallery currently features the original works of 18 local and native Florida artists. Not to worry, their works are not all seashells and sunsets, but rather a vivid presentation of pop, funk, traditional, and folk styles created in watercolor, oil, and acrylic paintings, hand-built ceramic, mixed media, and metal sculpture, glass, wood, jewelry and more.
