Art in the Afternoon Benefits FOL
Each year, Art in the Afternoon chooses a local nonprofit to benefit from the proceeds from their annual art exhibition and silent auction. This year, Friends of the Black Mountain Library was the beneficiary receiving a $1,000 check on July 22nd!
Art in the Afternoon is a fine arts-based afterschool program serving local students. Students working in a variety of media including pottery, painting, mosaics, collage and drawing created close to 1,000 pieces of art which were displayed throughout June in the Library’s Community Room.
