Local Artists Help Matthews House

On Saturday, June 26th, 15 local artists set up their beautiful creations at the Matthews House and generously spent the day with us in order to raise money for our programs. From jewelry and purses to woodworking and pottery, 20% of all sales went to the Matthews House. Volunteers from Emmaus Road Church and The Matthews House provided a BBQ as well. It was a new endeavor and while the weather wasn't as cooperative as we'd have liked, it was a good solid start on a new event that we're looking forward to growing next year.

Many thanks to our organizer and displaying artist, Marsha Krygier, and all our artists.
