Thank you for supporting Lockeland Design Center's "Story of Heroes Art Show and Sale." There is a list a mile long of helping hands to thank starting with Dan Heller of Riverside Village, Sip, The Music School, Mitchell's Deli, and Wantanbe for hosting our event. The Art Show would most certainly not have happened this year without ART HERO and all around fabulous WONDER WOMAN, Michelle Sharp. There was also a team of incredible guest artist who spent countless hours in and out of the classroom working with the children and working on their own beautiful art that you will see below this post. Many hands helped to display the children's art and prepare it for the show. I fear listing each name because there were many and I don't want to leave anyone out. From the parents who manned the auction table to AmyRidings who organized all the bid sheets to the bidders who were both parents and community members- THANK YOU!!
A huge THANK YOU also goes out to each and every person and child who came out in attendance for the art show! It was magical to have Justin Lett of Eden's Gate heading up a team with the art teacher from Litton and all her wonderful students painting a Hero Mural. The crowd and the Litton Mural Painters were just a fantastic as the art on the walls, if not more so. Thank you all for showing up and being a part of a magical night filled with Art Super Power Energy!
Thank you to all the parents who have already sent in their $10.oo to purchase their children's art and also to those of you who are in the process of doing so. Thank you for all the donations that are coming in with that $10.oo purchase fee and to all those who made donations on the night of the Art Show. Thank you also to those who have purchased the HERO MUGs!
It feels so wonderful to be the art teacher at Lockeland Design Center because of all the marvelous people who support the arts for children in East Nashville. I am so proud of all the guest artist/ art heroes who worked with our children this year. Each and every guest artist/ art hero was a parent from Lockeland. This says a great deal about us as a community. East Nashville has spoken with its support for the "Story of Heroes Art Show and Sale" and it has said: EAST NASHVILLE VALUES OUR CHILDREN, CREATIVITY, AND ART!!! Our community has said this through its actions and its gifts.
THANK YOU!!
