- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Help support art education in Columbia County, by volunteering for ASCC's 5th annual Frame, Art Supplies & Canvas Sale. Help us by participating in this environmentally-friendly approach to getting art supplies to our community, while supporting ASCC. Volunteers to help with publicity, and sort and price art supply and frame donations in August and early September appreciated, and volunteers to help the weekend of the sale welcome. This event is a unique and fun way to "up-cycle" art supplies back into the community and is an essential fundraiser for the Art School, to enable us to teach free K-12 art programs throughout our region, host art lectures and exhibits, and offer fine art classes well below cost, plus a scholarship program. We welcome those who enjoy giving back and helping others. Learn more on our website.
