Additionally, the gallery will be donating its commission on all art sold during the month of April 2010.

There will be an Artist reception from 5-9pm, demonstrations of Blacksmithing by Richard Schrader, glass blowing by René Steinke, Portrait Sketching by Michael Bookout, best in Show awards, music, a silent ART auction and raffle, and more. Additionally you can place your bid the week before the reception and remember you need not be present to win. Updated information will posted.

Our mission is to help bring awareness to our community. Studies show that early and ongoing treatment with an FDA-approved therapy can reduce future disease activity and improve quality of life for many people with multiple sclerosis. Talk to your health care professional and contact the National MS Society at www.nationalmssociety.org or 1-800-FIGHT-MS to learn about ways to help manage and about current research that may one day reveal a cure.

Multiple sclerosis (or MS) is not contagious; it is a chronic, often disabling disease that
attacks the central nervous system (CNS), which is made up of the brain, spinal cord,
and optic nerves. Today, new treatments and advances in research are giving new hope
to people affected by the disease your art purchases will benefit these programs through
the National MS Society, for more information on MS go to www.nationalmssociety.org.

Your support will bring awareness to our community, fund cutting-edge research, drive change through advocacy,facilitate professional education, and provide programs and services to help people with
MS and their families move their lives forward.

Thank you for your support!
