The Funky Junque Gallery at Zinnia

The New Funky Junque Gallery at Zinnia...

is the new news....
we are expanding into the space to the east of us (where the Christian Science Reading Room was).

We are very excited about this new addition. It will be a gallery of wonderful art, creative and arty gifts, inspirational books and motivating pieces.

I hope to open the doors to the new gallery on August 16th (it will be a soft opening on an important day). Shorty after we will be having our first art opening.
A Benefit show for the Honey Bee's. We will be soliciting work to be donated to the show and profits from the show will go to an organization that helps the honey bee.

So - Open call to all artist- yes we mean YOU!
Zinnia will be hosting its first gallery show in Sept of 2008, and would like to make a difference while sharing art.
The bee colonies of North America are inexplicable disappearing, and we have the opportunity to help raise funds for research. The phenomenon is called colony collapse disorder and it is occurring all over the world to varying degrees. scientist don't know why this is happening. Research is being done but funding is needed to help save our bees.
So what can you do??
Create a piece of Bee art to donate to this show and the proceeds from the sale will be donated to bee research.
Each piece of art must relate in some way to bees. Each artist may donate up to 3 pieces.
If you are interested in participating please contact Tyn at tyn33@hotmail.com so that she can put on "the list", and get this ball rolling.

The store is still a bit of a mess but please come by and see what we have going on - it is nice to take a break and chat with friends now and then.
