CONTEST!!!!
"PAINTING FOR MIRACLES"
FEATURES Ai STUDENTS COOKING FOR A GREAT CAUSE

Each Fall, a very special project takes place in the arts community to benefit the Children’s Miracle Network at UC Davis Children’s Hospital. On September 25 the community comes together to enjoy art, music, food, and to show their support for children at the 6th annual "Painting for Miracles."The event is an evening of art appreciation, from the artwork created two weeks prior to the art of cooking and art of music. Featuring a buffet prepared and staffed by culinary students at the Art Institute of California - Sacramento, this gala event is the culmination of a two-week process that offers an opportunity for people of all ages and income levels to directly benefit the sick and injured children of our community. Painting for Miracles begins the weekend of September 10-12. Local artists are given stories from The Children’s Miracle Network to inspire them, and then have the opportunity to return to their non-techy “roots” by picking up a paintbrush. The artists all paint (or undertake some other art form, of the artists choice) together at ZAP Creative Group. 304 N 12th Street in Sacramento. The 2010 paint weekend begins on a Friday afternoon and ends when everyone is done on Sunday. Paint and boards are provided, as well as food and drinks to keep those creative minds flowing!Call or email to purchase tickets$10.00 DonationTickets will go fast!
