Gallery Event to Help Fund School Arts Programs

Arts Gallery
One goal of the Alamo Danville Artists Society (ADAS) is to create art and make it available to the community through the Pioneer Art Gallery in downtown Danville.

Another objective is to help fund arts education in the schools. Now the gallery's members have combined these two objectives by providing an opportunity for the community to purchase original art without breaking the bank.

For three days in late November, more than 20 local artists will be offering at least 100 original works to the public for $100 per work or less. This event represents a great opportunity to find gifts for the art-lovers in your life, or to supplement your own collection.

Ten percent of all sales will go directly to the San Ramon Valley Unified School District for the schools' art programs.

The "100 for $100" event will take place at the Pioneer Art Gallery, 524 Hartz Avenue, Danville, at the following times:

November 28, noon-9:00 P.M.

November 29, 9:00 A.M.-8:00 P.M.

November 30 noon-5:00 P.M.

Gallery members invite the community to come to the event, enjoy art, music, and refreshments, and best of all, help support school arts programs.
