TIPS & TECHNIQUES
Our builder is Michael Scheurich’s Arch Con.. Their contribution to this building is sizeable (one of our largest donors outside of foundations)
Art Supply, 2711 Main Street in Midtown, is our official sponsor. They have donated operating space for several months during our construction, art supplies for monthly raffles over 4 years of fundraising, and a smile and welcome as we used their space. We thank Vikki and Ben for their generosity.
Seeds of Watercolor
Consider a donation to Seeds of Watercolor. Each month our Washrag will list gifts, honorariums, birthdays, anniversaries, memorials and thank yous.
