June-A-Palooza 2024: A Parisian Experience

I painted a scene of Paris for June-A-Palooza, an outdoor fundraising event to benefit Fresh Meals On Wheels of Sheboygan County.  The palette-shaped sculpture is one of many metal sculptures that will be sold at an auction at Christopher Farm & Gardens during the event.  All proceeds from the auction will benefit Fresh Meals On Wheels of Sheboygan County.

I will be one of about 20 Sheboygan Visual Artists painting en plein air around the extraordinary grounds of Christopher Farm & Gardens during the event to help bring the ambiance of Paris to the soiree.

Guests will have the opportunity to purchase a painting after the event.  A percentage of the proceeds from the sale of paintings will benefit Fresh Meals On Wheels of Sheboygan County.

The fundraising goal this year is to raise $140,000, which is crucial to help fight malnutrition among the fragile population that Meals On Wheels serves daily.

Purchase your admission ticket $165 per person.  Premiere early event access $500 admits two people for the whole day. Exclusive 1:45 pm start with food, drinks, and a behind the scenes garden experience. Only 14 of these tickets left for 18 more days. www.juneapalooza.com

Saturday, June 22, 2024 from 3 pm to 9 pm. Stroll through the lush garden scenery as you devour French cuisine and enjoy the timeless sophistication of French culture – with a touch of Olympic spirit. Enjoy musical performances, live and silent auctions, garden art, activities, games, specialty wines and beer, food tastings, and catered dinner, all for one price.

Christopher Farm & Gardens is located at W580 Garton Road, Sheboygan, Wisconsin

June A-Palooza

 forkfield

 

I painted two forks for the June-A-Palooza event to benefit Meals on Wheels of Sheboygan County, Wisconsin

The “Fork Field”, a literal garden of forks, showcased the unique talents of regional artists. 

Artists from Door County to Chicago painted these one-of-a-kind indoor/outdoor metal fork sculptures for the benefit of the Meals On Wheels of Sheboygan County.  These forks were available for bidding in a silent auction.

Forks are either 3 feet tall or 5 feet tall.  They are weather resistant and may be hung on a wall or displayed in a garden.
