The Board of Directors, and staff of the Shoreline-Lake Forest Park Arts Council would like to thank everyone who made this year’s Gala such a success! The approximately 160 guests at the event really went the extra mile by raising $48,169 to make sure our communities will continue to be enriched by the Arts! 

The Make a Difference portion of the evening (often called “Raise the Paddle”) raised an impressive $10,100 for arts education in our schools! This money goes to support the Arts Council’s Artist-in-Schools program which brings working artists into the classroom to lead tactile, hands-on art experiences in our increasingly digital world.

The winners of this year’s HeART award are Keith and Robin McClelland who were recognized for their long-term commitment to supporting and cultivating the arts in our community, and especially for their work on the North City Jazz Walk.

The Shoreline-Lake Forest Park Arts Council is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to cultivate creativity and inspire our community through the arts.
