Calendar Pick: ‘Together We Dazzle’ Opening Reception

Credit: Christina Littleton

Over 20 local artists will be featured at “Together We Dazzle,” an annual art show dedicated to raising money for the Ehlers-Danlos Society. Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is a genetic condition that affects the body’s connective tissues. Christina Littleton, the event’s organizer, was inspired by her own recent diagnosis to center the show around bringing awareness to the condition and raising money to go toward grants and research. Twenty-four percent of all art sales and 100% of admissions payments will be donated to the Ehlers-Danlos Society. In addition to works available for sale in a variety of mediums, from paintings to photography, the opening reception will also have live music, silent auctions, raffles and libations. The artworks will be on display until the closing reception on Sept. 21.

WHO: “Together We Dazzle” Opening Reception
WHEN: Saturday, June 29, 3 p.m.
WHERE: Hendershot’s
HOW MUCH: $10 minimum donation
