The Altadena Arts Council is presenting its annual "Altadena ARTBreak" on June 17-24. The event, which showcases the creative ability and talent of the area's school-age children and youth, will be held at the Temporary Gallery in the Webster's complex, 2460 N. Lake Ave.
According to Mary Ann Stevenson, executive director, "ARTBreak is all about celebrating the talent and creativity of Altadena/Pasadena are children and youth and providing a venue to highlight the important role that the arts can play in transforming their attitudes and appreciation of their talents and abilities."
This year, thanks to the generosity of the Webster family, the Arts Council will have the opportunity to transfarm a currently vacant store owned by the Websters into an art gallery. The event will kick off with an opening night reception on Fri., June 17, starting at 6 PM to which the public is invited, and will also feature a variety of entertainment and activities. Gallery hours are Sat., June 18 3-7 PM, Sun., June 19 2-5 PM, and Mon. thru Fri. 3-7 PM.
The arts council is seeking volunteers to assist in hosting this exhibit. Please contact the Council at 626-797-5798. Information is also available at the Arts Council's website, altadenaartscouncil.org.
