SPAA Gives Back

Remember Christmas morning when you couldn’t wait to see what Santa left?

Now’s your chance to create that kind of magic for another child–or more than one.

San Pedro Art Association is well-versed in creating magic.

Every summer, they host the Harbor Wide All Grades Student Art Competition.   As mentioned in a previous post, every participant gets a prize for taking part.  And everyone gets their work professionally framed and exhibited at CRAFTED.

In addition, nonprofit San Pedro Art Association has been serving artists–of all ages–with classes, shows and special events, since 1936.

Now, for Christmas, SPAA is in the spirit.

From now up to Christmas week, they’ll be hosting their Toy Drive, to benefit Harbor Interfaith Services, in San Pedro.  Year-round, Harbor Interfaith works to empower the homeless and working poor to achieve self-sufficiency.

Would you like to help SPAA support Harbor Interfaith in their mission, by dropping off a new, unwrapped toy at their Farmers’ Market booth today?  (SPAA’s special Farmer’s Market holiday booth will be open every Friday, 9 am through 2 pm, from now through the end of December.). Or at their gallery at CRAFTED, open every Friday through Sunday?

According to their flyer, the “elves” at SPAA are going to be busy.  They also have a Christmas party and a Holiday Craft Fair in the works–and I’ll give you more information on both of these as I know more!

Meanwhile, have a fun and safe Thanksgiving weekend, and a start to a very Merry Christmas!
