We hope to see you there!

Where: Acadian Ballroom at 1829 NE Alberta St.

Who: Presentations by Art Hop 2010 muralists Rodolfo Serna, Adriene Cruz, and Esteban Camacho. The muralists will briefly discuss their upcoming mural projects on Alberta St.; including some details about how area at-risk youth and the attendees of Art Hop will assist in bringing the murals to life.

We will also present our Annual Community Service Award to Portland Mural Advocates (formerly Portland Mural Defense) whose efforts in the past decade enabled our 2010 mural project to occur. They will do a short presentation on murals in Portland.

There will also be a public presentation of the Art on Alberta Youth Scholarships (see post below to donate or for info. about the scholarships). Former Senator Avel Gordly and artist Adriene Cruz will be presenting the awards.

Several community partners and Art Hop 2010 featured attractions will have info. tables about their organizations, including Sabin CDC, Community Energy Project, Oregon Tradeswomen, Art in Hand Playing Cards, Destination DIY, Bitch Magazine, and Siren Nation.

Bonus: Refreshments will be served, and if you sign up as a new Art on Alberta Member at the meeting, you will receive a complimentary serving tray such as these (while supplies last!)

All trays have been generously donated by Red Horseshoe Paper. To see more  of their fabulous designs click HERE.

We are excited to announce the launch of the Art on Alberta Youth Art Scholarship Fund for 2009-2010! The fund will provide scholarships to 3 teen artists who were integral to our 2007 & 2009 Art Hop events. All donations to the fund are 100% tax deductible and 100% of your donation goes directly to the teens for their education.
