We appreciate your support for this year's Jackson Pollock Event
The Jackson Pollock Splash & Drip Party was fun for all that attended. We manage to conjure up $250.00, plus some non-perishable goods for The Gathering Place. Thanks to the people that attended the event.
We would also like to thank our sponsors, Perron's TIM-BR-MART in Astorville, The Recycling Depot and Home Hardware Seymour St. for supplying the paints, including, Van Houtte for supplying the coffee for the event.
If anyone would like to add to the pot you can mail, hand deliver or contribute online at www.kingsframingandartgallery.com through PayPal.
Jill in charge of The Gathering Place is gracious for the support, like she said: "Any support is good support". It cost $250.00 per day to feed the people that go to The Gathering Place every day.
You never know if one day you will need the facility due to an illness, loss of income or worst a job which drastically reduces your income, but the bills don't stop. We've all heard stories about educated individual that went down on their luck due to an inherited psychological disease and ended up on the street.
I don't know if you heard the story about a university professor in BC, which I will never forget... He even risked his life to save a drowning person. He was a homeless person that had it all and there he was down and out. A disease has no respect of person.
Keep this in mind as you go about your day... "How fortunate we are that our mind doesn't play tricks on us.
Sincerely,
Bob & Lise King
