Decorated Boxes The Theme for Art Center Fundraiser

The Falmouth Art Center’s fall fundraiser this year is called “Out of the Box” and will feature boxes decorated by local artists. Artists and crafters who want to participate can purchase a wooden box at the Art Center to decorate and donate to the Art Center, or they can use or make their own box.

The Art Center has three shapes of wooden boxes, each costing $10 for Falmouth Art Center members or $12 for non-members. The artist then decorates the box and donates it back to the Art Center for a display and sale in November.

All proceeds from this fall fundraiser benefit the Falmouth Art Center’s scholarship program, assisting people of all ages and abilities to take art classes in all mediums.

Boxes can be purchased at the Art Center through September 28. The decorated boxes need to be dropped off on October 26 for display in the exhibit and sale that will take place the first two weeks of November.

The Falmouth Art Center is located at 137 Gifford Street in Falmouth. It is open to the public daily, Monday to Friday, 9am to 4pm; Saturday 10am to 2pm and Sunday 1 to 4pm. For more information, go to FalmouthArt.org or call 508-540-3304.

The Falmouth Art Center, a 501c3 nonprofit founded in 1966, is dedicated to the visual arts, providing educational and exhibition opportunities and welcoming students of all ages and abilities and all who enjoy and appreciate art.
