Announcing the About the Last Show On two hot but beautiful days in July, 2011, Gallery in the Garden raised over $5,000 for CASA of McHenry County. This was the best year to date for Gallery In The Garden! Approximately 1,200 visitors braved the heat and humidity to stroll through the garden, enjoying the music, the art and ambiance. Despite the current state of our economy, our visitors were extremely generous, helping us raise $5,428 for CASA of McHenry County. This included 20% of the artists' sales, proceeds from the raffle, direct donations, sales from Jenapea's and Jaci's Cookies and most special of all....80% of the proceeds from the neighbor girls' lemonade stand. One of the highlights of the show was the return of R.B. McCallister, who one year ago was stricken with a life threatening illness on the last day of Gallery In The Garden. Seeing him back under the pine tree in "his spot" with his pottery, greeting his many friends, was an inspiration to us all. Thank You! CASA of McHenry County Thanks to our Supporters The success Gallery In The Garden would not be possible without their generosity.
Both Gallery in the Garden and CASA of McHenry County are 501(c)(3) Non-For-Profit organizations. |
