Here Comes The Sun: Art Exhibition to Benefit the Killian Mansfield Foundation
Erica Harney, a visual artist, who was one of my instructors at the New York State Summer School of the Arts in 2007, is dedicating her work to the memory of one of her students.
Here Comes the Sun is an exhibition of Erica’s work. Over 200 pieces in various price ranges will be displayed, the proceeds going to the Killian Mansfield Foundation.
Killian Mansfield was one of Erica’s students and one of my peers at NYSSSA 2007. In 2009 he lost his battle against Synovial Sarcoma at the age of 16. The Killian Mansfield Foundation was started to help children like him, by providing integrated healthcare, nurturing their creativity through the arts, and uplifting their spirits.
The exhibition will be held at the Greenpoint Gallery (390 McGuiness Blvd. Greenpoint, Brooklyn, NY) on July 18th, 2011 from 6PM-8PM.
Please reblog this. Even if you do not live in the NY area, even if you aren’t interested. One of yr followers might, and we need as many people to attend as possible.
