BEES (& the Birds) is a salon style art show to raise funds and awareness for our bee friends. A group of 38 artists coming together to use their art to help the bees including Jen Pilles of Akin Lansdowne.

The second annual show is once again at Graven Feather Gallery. The show runs from May 18 to 29, 2016 and the OPENING Reception will be held on Thursday, May 19 from 6 to 9 p.m.

Each of the artists participating in the show want to make a difference and help the bees. The works are bee inspired pieces that explore the role of this alchemist insect in our world.

These artists felt their work could play a big role in raising awareness and money - offering solutions for individuals - for our community - and for our world.

That's why 10% of all show proceeds - including sales - will go to the David Suzuki Foundation's efforts to save the bees.

Organized by artist Christine Pensa (Art That Moves) and Erin Candela and Pam Lobb (Graven Feather) the show features painting, prints, drawings, and photographs on the theme or bees and other pollinators.
