GLENDALE -- A group of budding fine artists in Glendale is reaching
out to hospitalized children by donating their art to a fund-raiser.
Youngsters from Mission: Renaissance in Glendale have donated their
artwork to be sold at a special exhibition to raise funds for Chase Place
at Childrens Hospital Los Angeles.
Chase Place is named after a child who lost the battle with cancer. It
is a designated area where children go to escape the pain of treatment
with the help of beautiful murals and toys.
Artists participating are Jessica Kim, 12; Robert Kim, 9; Emily
Kurginyan, 9; Lucine Oganesian, 6; Nicole Perez, 9; Melissa Robinson, 7;
and Sophia Steilen, 5.
The Chase Foundation will be auctioning the artwork at a fund-raiser
at 7 p.m. Wednesday at the Four Seasons Hotel, 300 S. Doheny Drive in
Beverly Hills. The artwork, which ranges from watercolors to pastels, was
professionally framed by Mat Source in Glendale, which also donated its
services.
For reservations, call (323) 658-1161.
Mission: Renaissance is a fine arts school for adults, teens and
children.
