Baylee LaVoie with furnARTure by Erin McConnell
On Sunday, September 15th, experience the 4th-annual FurnArture event featuring inspired and imaginative works of art from top regional artists along with artists from the Studio at Living Opportunities.
FurnArture, a benefit auction that supports the Studio at Living Opportunities, is the signature event that has artists transforming recycled furniture and other treasures into functional and beautiful objects of art. Included will be a wide selection of inventive paintings and artwork created by the artists of the Studio at Living Opportunities. Pieces will be on display for you to preview at Terra Firma Home in downtown Medford on August 29th.
The Studio’s mission is unique in our community for its strong emphasis on self -expression, inclusion and integration. Particularly, this event allows the artists and community members to support each other and the arts.
Creations will be featured by over 20 of the region’s top artists including Kevin Christman, Pegi Smith, Holly Herick, Krissy Millner, Dan Mish, and Chandra Hayes. Studio artists include Mieke Ryneal, Justin Warren, Simone Renée Moore and Sara Slawta.
Proceeds will provide resources, workshops and scholarships to promote independence, creativity, and income for artists with a wide
range of disabilities. Through this program, the Studio’s artists can discover their individual potential to flourish through the creative process.
Join us at Bigham Knoll in Jacksonville and enjoy a fun-filled afternoon of art, hors d’oeuvres, wine and live music.
