Congregation Beth Emeth Sisterhood will be hosting their annual holiday shopping event offering the community the opportunity to find unique holiday gifts for Chanukah and Christmas from a variety of local artisans and vendors. This is a Sisterhood fundraising event open to the public.

The Darley Fest (aka Darley Beer Wine & Music Festival) in its third year, showcases the Renaissance happening in Northern Claymont, Delaware. The Claymont Renaissance Development Corporation and Gable Music Ventures (think Ladybug Festival) have collaborated to bring you this great community festival. Sample craft beer from local Delaware breweries, wine, mead, jam with live music all day, feast on fantastic international food truck cuisines, take home delicious small batch artisanal culinary delights, and innovative and creative artisan craft work. Come out for a spectacular day. Rain date on Sunday, October 6th from 12-6 pm.

I am one of six invited artists creating work “live” in different rooms of the Oakbourne Mansion in West Chester, PA. The artists will be donating work to the live or silent auctions at The Hickman signature fundraiser, which benefits the Resident Assistance Fund. This unique event engages attendees with artists while they create their work and discuss their process. The Hickman is a Quaker led, non-profit celebrating the 127th year anniversary of providing a safe and thriving home to older adults in Chester County. The Resident Assistance Fund provides financial assistance to residents who have depleted their financial resources so they can continue to live in The Hickman community. No resident has had to leave The Hickman due to financial reasons because of this fund since opening in 1891. It brings me joy to know that my creativity and energy will contribute to this important effort.
