Artworks Local Art & Gifts: 2016

Happy New Year

Happy New Year from all of us here at Artworks Studio & Gallery. Celebrate responsibly. Come see us next year!

Merry Christmas

We hope you have the merriest of Christmas' with your family and your friends. Merry Christmas to you and yours!

We had a fantastic Christmas Party at Artworks last night. We thank everyone who helped make this happen and for making it such a memorable event. Also, 325zeroHunger thanks you for your donations in helping kids in our 325 zip codes that need food now and through the holidays. Any donations of food items or cash can still be dropped off at Artworks during any business hours and we will forward them on to 325zeroHunger. We wish each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas with family and friends. We hope to see you again soon.

2016 Artworks Christmas Party and Dirty Santa Gift Swap

Join us all at Artworks Studio & Gallery on December 3rd, 6pm, for our 2016 Christmas Party. Talis Jayme of Artworks Studio & Gallery will be hosting the party this year along with all of the gallery artists and Villagio businesses. 325ZeroHunger, the nonprofit with the mission of ending childhood hunger in the 32506 and 32507 zip codes of Escambia County, is our 2016 Charity Organization of the Year, and this will be our third year with Noah Moseley and Jeanna Tucker hosting our Dirty Santa Christmas Gift Swap.

325ZeroHunger Charity Contributions

Bring food for the hungry. 325ZeroHunger is working with seven (7) elementary and middle schools in our geographic area and will make sure that our food contributions are distributed to those children and families in need in our area. We encourage our party guests to bring a food contribution for this wonderful charity. The following food items would be greatly appreciated by families this organization serves: Pasta, Pasta Sauce (in a can, not glass), Rice, Canned Beans, Canned Chicken, Canned Tuna, Chili, Ravioli, Peanut Butter, Cereal, Oatmeal, Grits.

This Christmas party at Artworks is one small chance for us to help address local childhood hunger, but it is a HUGE part in the lives of those children. Bring any of the items suggested above as your contribution. Donations will also be accepted.

Dirty Santa Christmas Gift Swap, 8pm

Bring a wrapped gift if you would like to play in our Dirty Santa Christmas Gift Swap where you can steal gifts from someone else and they can steal from you – all in good fun and everyone who plays leaves with a Christmas gift. We suggest wrapped gifts of about $20 in value. The Dirty Santa Christmas Party will start at 7:30pm.

Hors d'oeuvres and beverages will be served for everyone attending and a cash bar will be provided by the Jellyfish Restaurant and Bar. Party attendees are welcome to bring food and beverages to share. More details will be posted here as possible. The public is welcome to join us so tell all of your friends. Call Noah Moseley if you have questions (334) 538-0580. Thank you. We hope to see you and your friends at the party.

Merry Christmas!
