What an incredible night and a deeply needed lift after a very difficult week for the District 65 community!
We gathered to celebrate three exceptional local nonprofits: @chicagoballetarts , @peerservicesinc , and @foundation_65. All three of these amazing organizations do vital work right here in Evanston. While Chicago Ballet Arts and PEER Services were each awarded $500, Foundation 65 took home the most votes, securing an incredible grand prize of over $12,900!

Tucked along the Evanston lakefront is the Greenwood Beach Art Post, a tiny gallery with a whole lot of charm. I stumbled upon this little gem while roller skating along the lakefront path this summer, and now I’m so stoked to be the featured artist for October!

Evanston will always hold a special place in my soul and I can’t think of a more perfect spot for my art than right by the beach! ☀️

If you’re cruising along the lakefront, stop by and take a peek!

Big thanks to @evanstonroundtable for creating this awesome little space for local art! 💛
