Canvas + Corks An Idaho Art and Wine-Tasting Event (formerly Leap Into Art)

By All IWS Info, Events

Hello!

My name is Cyndi Van Stein, I am pleased to share with you that we are hosting our 2nd annual art show to support Congregation Ahavath Beth Israel (CABI). Our first annual show, Leap Into Art, was a huge success. The upcoming show is called Canvas + Corks, and includes a ticketed event on the evening of January 30th for art collectors. Artists will be able to attend for free. It will be an evening of art, music, wine tasting and food in the rooftop room at JUMP. It should be a lot of fun.

This show is open to all Idaho Artists. The purpose is to bring together artists from various local artist organizations in one show that will benefit CABI. 80% of the sales will go to artists, with 20% retained by CABI.

It promises to be a wonderful event.  We hope your members will participate, we know you are a very talented group. We will be bringing together guests from our congregation, friends, and art collectors, so there will be buyers who have not yet been exposed to your members’ work.
I have attached a prospectus that contains all the details, and you can see the event web page here: https://www.cabi-boise.org/canvasandcorks# 

Reach out if you have any questions.

Thanks so much,

Cyndi
