Students at the Oloosirkon Primary School in Ongata Rongai, Kenya will be the beneficiaries of a debut solo exhibition of photographs by Melony A. Price-Rhodes, PhD, at Beanetics Coffee Roasters in Annandale, Virginia.
Price-Rhodes's work includes a wide variety of subjects— countryside scenes; kids at soccer practice; Navy jets on aircraft carriers; and scenes from her travels--including several trips to Kenya. "The last couple of trips there," she notes, "we have bought the school supplies and soccer balls. They love it!" Proceeds from the sale of photographs in the exhibit, "My Favorite Things," will go toward school supplies for the students.
"My Favorite Things" is on display from November 3 through December 14, 2010. An artist's reception will be held Saturday, November 13, from 7:00 to 9:00 pm. Beanetics is located at 7028 Columbia Pike, Annandale, Virginia 22003. Shop hours are Monday through Thursday from 7am to 8pm, Friday and Saturday from 7am to 9pm, and Sunday from 8:30am to 6pm.
