dream project

When my friends at Empathinc. and The Educational Center asked me to help organize a fundraiser and art show that would benefit the Center, I said yes. Both organizations are all about faith, the arts and exploring stories. What's not to like? Then they told me the artist who'd be sharing his work was Scott Avett. Yes, please. (We're big Avett Brothers fans around here.)

The same kind of truth-telling and truth-seeking that makes The Avett Brothers' music so meaningful comes through in Scott's paintings. He will share them and discuss how his faith informs his art at the private fundraising event on Feb. 24, 2012. The public is invited to view his work from 10 am - 4 pm on Saturday, Feb. 25.
