A Place for Art

Mary Waldhorn, Artist, Art Educator and Curator, will  be displaying her art in an exhibit called "Metaphors and Water Fowl" at the Eastside Artists' Gallery.  Her theme encompasses two strands of work which inspire her paintings regularly.  One is her appreciation of the beautiful water fowl which she always finds magical as she glimpses them on her nature walks.  Some of Mary's metaphorical works have been created to help her process the political world we all swim in.  Because of the ongoing global pandemic and difficult economic times for many, Ms. Waldhorn would like to donate $100.00 of the proceeds from each of her sales to Doctors Without Borders or The Maryland Food Bank.  If you purchase a piece of work during this exhibit, you may choose the charity to which you would like her to contribute.

Joining Ms. Waldhorn is Jo Elizabeth Butler, the founder of the Ethiopian Children's Appeal and Jewels for Schools charities. Both support rural school children and HIV/AIDS orphans in Ethiopia.  She makes and sells jewelry to raise funds and 100 percent of all proceeds go directly to helping Ethiopian children.  Her jewelry features beads from all over the African continent, silver made by artisans in Ethiopia as well as Swarovski crystals and pearls.
