Summer is Almost Over!

We have had a great summer at Best Friends Gallery!  We started the season in May with the art show at the Alabama Writer's Symposium in Monroeville.  Thanks to Susan at Alabama Southern Community College for inviting us to be the gallery that exhibited this year!  It was a great experience.  We hope they enjoyed our show as much as we enjoyed being there.  Thanks to our artists for creating all of that artwork!




Then we started summer art classes for children.
Thanks to all of the parents who signed your children up for classes with us...it's by your support that we are able to be- Thank you.

We want to encourage off of our little Picassos to keep playing in paint!


We hosted a book-signing and reading event for the local ladies who wrote The Boat House Buddies. Thanks to everyone who participated!  It was alot of fun....and we are anticipating the arrival of books 8-10. 


We hosted a bracelet show for Casey Troulias, who sells bracelets to raise awareness about cystic fibrosis and the money she raises goes toward helping to find a cure for the disease.  Thanks to all of you who came out in support of Casey, and finding the cure! 


We helped the North Baldwin Coalition of Excellence in Education with the Summer Art Camp. It was a first time experience for us in the upper part of the county and it was a huge success! Thanks parents, once again. We are looking forward to next summer, although it will be hard to top this one!


Come to us with ideas.  We are always open to suggestions, and want to make Best Friends Gallery the place that you gather with your friends!
