THANK YOU for celebrating our 40th anniversary with us at our Art & Soul event. This fundraiser was a smashing success with a record-breaking turnout and original Artsquad members traveling from as far as Florida! We are incredibly grateful for the support of our committee members, luxury item donors, auction artists, and sponsors who were integral to the success of the event. We thought you would enjoy these pictures full of smiles as we shared an evening of music, dancing, and of course ART!
