Grass Valley Charter School’s Dog Art Fundraiser

Kath Schad and the parents at Grass Valley Charter School continue to amaze.  Remember when I wrote about how Kath spearheaded the effort to teach every first and second grader at Grass Valley Charter how to paint dog portrais?   And then, how she set up a Zazzle store so the young artists could purchase their works on t-shirts and mugs and give them as Christmas gifts?  And then, how she organized an exhibition of all the paintings at a local bakery?  Well Kath Schad's year-long-dog-art-a-palooza reaches a crescendo on May 1, 2010 with a dog art raffle and silent auction to raise money for Grass Valley Charter's Library.  Kath christened the event "Dog W.A.G." which stands for "wine, art, and goodies."  If you're in Nevada County please come and support the artists and their library.  Details are at the bottom of this post.

If you can't make it but would like to contribute, please consider buying a raffle ticket for the two handmade quilts featuring all of the pet portraits created by local quilter Rebecca De Rock with fabric printed by NC Tees.

Raffle tickets for the quilts are $5 each.  Email Kath Schad to purchase.  "We are crew" is the school's motto…
