FUNDRAISER TO BENEFIT THE LIBRARY!
THE MANHEIM GALLERY is organizing a fund raising event for the benefit of the Cottonwood Public Library! On June 9th, 2012 from 4-7 pm, 6" x 6" artworks created by local artists using a theme of "Books" as inspiration, will be unveiled at a reception at THE MANHEIM GALLERY. The artwork will be for sale through the end of June. The proceeds from the sales go directly to Bookmarks, our Friends of the Library Group that raises funds to purchase such things as Rental Books and meeting special needs in the Youth Services area. This fundraiser, a gift of THE MANHEIM GALLERY, will provide supplemental funding for the library's Summer Reading Program, as well as adult programming that otherwise could not be achieved.
Plan to attend the Opening Reception at THE MANHEIM GALLERY on June 9th. Come meet the artists, feast your eyes on the beautiful art crafted generously for the fundraiser, and take home a piece of original art for yourself, for your friends, for your family, and especially for YOUR LIBRARY!
For more information regarding the library fundraiser, contact Margo Mitchell at 928-639-0879 or ml.mitchell62@gmail.com. THE MANHEIM GALLERY is located at 747 N. Main Street, Old Town Cottonwood. Parking for the event is available in the gallery parking lot on 5th Street behind Zoomer's Bike Shop.
