April 21st marked the Second Renewal Arts Show in
Athens, Ga. Mark Palmer along with Ekklesia Church organized the event, and we were lucky enough to be invited by Sybil Zimmerman, an Educator, Activist, and long time A.A.C. Supporter.
The Renewal Arts show was hosted by Athens Art 4 Schools and featured 30+ artists, a silent
auction, and best of all a good cause. In the Arts community, we know that the
first programs to receive funding cuts usually involve the Arts, but Athens Art 4 Schools aims to provide funding and support for quality Arts programming in Athens, GA.
In this short video, Sybil Z. and Rhonda Palmer explain the purpose behind the Renewal Arts show and their organization Athens Art 4 Schools, which works to provide funding to arts programs in elementary schools.
We like the motto, “Do you love kids, and do you love art?”
We especially like that Sybil and her group are taking matters into their own
hands and “being the change they wish to see in the world.” Kudos to Sybil and
everyone who supported Athens Art4Kids.
