ARTSTREET SHOW BREAKS ATTENDANCE RECORD

On Friday, February 1st, over 500 people attended the opening reception of the annual Recycled Heart art show. This sets a new attendance record for an ArtStreet opening. Your support made this possible. The Recycled Heart exhibit was on display from Feb. 1st to Feb 21st at Harwood Art Center. Thank You! 100% of the sales benefitted the artists of ArtStreet.  

Sales of gallery art that night totaled $2,400, with an additional $680 in total sales at the craft table.

  Bringing the injustice of poverty and homelessness together, Recycled Heart is an annual exhibit that is uniquely poised to capture the diverse, distinct, and highly individual responses of ArtStreet artists' interpretation of their community experience in relation to poverty and homelessness. The 2019 Recycled Heart exhibition was made possible, in part, by funding from the City of Albuquerque, New Mexico Arts, a division of the Department of Cultural Affairs, The National Endowment for the Arts, and Harwood Art Center of Escuela del Sol Montessori. The project also receives funding through individual contributions from donors such as yourself and private foundations.
