“Giving Back on Friday – Help for the Holidays,” is a new and exciting program in support of worthy causes in the greater DC area and that’s exactly what's planned for the evening of Friday, November 19 from 5-8pm.
You are invited to join with friends and colleagues in support of PROJECT RENEW by attending the 23rd Washington Craft Show. Here's what to do: Purchase a ticket to the Washington Craft Show. The Washington Craft Show will send PROJECT RENEW $5 for each visitor who presents this certificate along with their regular priced $15 ticket at the admission booth on Friday, November 19, between the hours of 5pm-8pm. Let’s get lots of people in to support this wonderful
group on Friday night. We all would like to see thousands of certificates in the ticket
boxes, and I encourage my readers to invite your friends and colleagues
to help give something back to the community this holiday season!
Come out and see some great craft works!
