FUN'Raiser...5-Minute Portraits

Ready to be part of something FUN and really MEANINGFUL?

HELP Wickford Art Association close a growing financial gap caused by the COVID-19 crisis.  To date, WAA has lost thousands in revenues from exhibit registrations, cancelled classes and workshops, and postponed fund-raising events.  Our gallery doors have been shut since mid-March and likely through most of May.  The GREAT news is...our artist community remains STRONG!  WAA members have stayed creative during these uncertain times, sharing their work through our social media, entering our current virtual exhibit FUR, FEATHERS, FINS, and now...we've assembled a team to create quick 5-Minute renderings of the images YOU provide. Do you want to become part of our CREATIVE COMMUNITY?

HOW IT WORKS:
Make a donation for $20 (or more). Complete the form & upload a photo of a child, grandchild, or other young family member. Once you’ve paid through PayPal, our team of artists will work their magic through their chosen media and with lots of personal style!  We'll reach out once your 5-Minute Portrait is complete.

Please note...it’s $20 per face, but there’s no limit on how many portraits you can purchase.  The more donations we receive, the more we can support our artist community as soon as our doors re-open.  Of course, if you feel compelled to give more than asked, we’d be so grateful for your generosity. Our supporters are THE BEST!

This FUN'Raiser was "totally borrowed" from other non-profits...but, through it we hope to bring you some JOY and perhaps a few LAUGHS during these challenging times.  Thank you, in advance, for helping us raise critically needed funds!

WAA Gallery has Re-Opened with NEW HOURS:

All Summer: Wednesdays through Sundays (noon-3PM) - OPEN STUDIO Tuesdays: 1PM-3PM
As an association with close ties to the community, we share your concerns about health and wellness and will do our part to help in this effort. WAA is complying with State of RI guidelines for cleaning, provision of hand sanitizer, use of facial masks, social distancing between parties, and overall capacity in-gallery.  We greatly look forward to reconnecting with you all soon as we celebrate the work of our fine artists in our upcoming exhibits!
Be well and stay healthy,
