Successful ART @ Dignity Diner Opening!

The art show hosted by Dignity Diner and MGRF's CareTeam was a success! Friday November 6th, Dignity Diner and the CareTeam opened the doors of the Holy Covenant UMC to the neighborhood and other supportors to show off the wonderful work our artists do each week. Annually, the CareTeam organizes an art show to showcase Dignity Diner patrons and their artwork.
Many of the artists were able to interact with members of the community and talk about their art. Additionally, most sold some of their pieces! For a chance to get your own originial art from Dignity Diner, please see our Etsy.com page at http://www.etsy.com/shop/dignitydinerart.

Through the generous support of Northside Prep, we furnished 5 doors with artwork. Following the theme of 'home' artwork was also displaying on coat racks, chairs and coffee tables. We invited our guests to see what a typical Diner table looks like, to join us in creating a community art piece and to read short biographies of the artists.

Work that was not purchased Friday evening is available on the ART @ Dignity Diner Etsy page at http://www.etsy.com/shop/dignitydinerart. Your support of both artists and the Diner is greatly appreciated. For more information about ART @ Dignity Diner and other CareTeam events, please visit http://www.mgrf.org/careteam.
