To Russia with Love - A fundraiser for the Nalley's adoption

05.24.11 | Posted in: News,Events

Event Time: Tuesday, May 31, from 7:00PM – 9:30PM

Please join us for a special girl’s night fundraising event which will included coffee, dessert & art, to benefit the Nalley’s adoption. All donations will go towards the costs needed for their adoption.

Several years ago Tara and Jonathan Nalley felt led to adopt internationally, and since then have worked very hard to adopt an orphan from Russia. They recently were able to travel to Russia and meet their daughter for the first time. They now have several weeks in the U.S. before they can go back to Russia and bring her home to stay. The Nalley’s will be sharing their journey of adopting a child from Russia at 8 pm.

Starbucks is donating coffee and there will be amazing desserts to sample.

We are delighted to host several local artists that will have artwork to purchase, with a portion of all sales being donated to the adoption. 

Our artists include:

  • Mark Mulfinger two dimensional art (markmulfinger.com)
  • Rachel Feece – pottery (rachelfeecepottery.com)
  • Cheryl Reid – Jewelry
  • David Lovegrove – two-dimensional art
  • Christopher CantrellMixed Arts
  • Kassie RupeChildren’s Illustrations (pikassodesigns.com)
  • Lydia Thomas –Graphics/two dimensional art
