Art for a Cause feeds hungry schoolchildren, and supports environmental causes!
If generosity makes you feel good, over 50 local artists must be floating on air! They personify charity in action, and have stepped forward to donate an amazing selection of original paintings for two great causes: Rise Against Hunger (which feeds hungry school children), and the Pennsylvania Resources Council (which supports environmental programs).
This wonderful art is painted by gifted, generous artists – many of whom are members of the Delaware Valley Art League, the Wayne Art Center, the Artist’s Circle, ARTsisters, and Flying Colors.
These contributions are from the heart, and are priced well below their market value.
