"Rise Above" Reception at SCRAP Re:Vision Gallery
You're Invited!
"Rise Above" Reception at SCRAP Re:Vision Gallery,
Friday Sept. 11
6:00-10:00 p.m.
The Dreaming Zebra Foundation & SCRAP are proud to sponsor "Rise Above", an exhibit of artwork and writing to benefit the Rise Above Arts program, and the teens residing at A Safe Place for Youth homeless shelter in Hillsboro, OR.
Dear Friends,
Please join us this Friday for the "Rise Above" opening reception, and show your support for the Rise Above Arts program, and the teens residing at a Safe Place for Youth!
The teens have worked hard to create this compelling art exhibit, using recycled materials, imagination and great heart. Proceeds from the reception will benefit Rise Above, and future art & writing programs for residents of the shelter.
For this group of talented youth, creativity serves as a positive outlet in their often too difficult lives, allowing them to express their struggles, hopes, and dreams.
We hope that you will enjoy this very special exhibit, which is on display through Sept. 31, and take advantage of the opportunity to say hello to some of the artists in person on Friday evening, while enjoying live music and refreshments! We look forward to seeing you then, and thank you as always for your support.

Sketchbook Project
I just signed up and thought that some of you may want to participate - individually or with students - in the new Art House Sketchbook Project.
For this 4th effort they ask that you "help us build a library of sketchbooks by creating your own and donating it to a collection that will tour galleries across the country."
The site also contains a couple of other artist opportunities as well.
Check it out and if you do participate we would love to hear about it as well as post some images!
