| Historic Barn preservation
benefit show with artist Jason Tako |
May
4 |
Artist Jason Tako will be painting in the gallery Saturday
May 4th from 12-6 pm. The subject will be that of an historic
Adams County (PA) barn. Proceeds from the sale of the silent
auction of the newly produced barn painting will benefit Historic
Gettysburg Adams County (HGAC) - a non-profit group dedicated
to preserving the historic character of Adams County's rural
countrysides and communities.
Members of HGAC will be on hand at the gallery to provide
information to attendees about their work and programs. 20%
of proceeds from the sale of any of Jason's works throughout
the month of May will be donated directly to HGAC for their
preservation efforts.
Please contact the gallery for more information at 1-800-664-9797.
Information about HGAC may be found on their website.
