A letter recently found between two friends became the inspiration for an Art Show that will take place on Sunday, June 22nd. Mary Jackson, a Charter Member of the Historical Society and Suzanne Haskew, founding Member of the Village Fine Arts spoke of their love of the arts and the importance of having an art cultural center in Milford.
Milford Historical
Society in partnership with the Village Fine Arts will host an art show called
Hot Days - Cool Art which will showcase the talent of young local arts from our
community. Mary and Suzanne truly knew
the value of the arts and believed in encouraging and supporting the future
generations of artists in our community.
Enjoy an
entertaining Sunday afternoon at the Mary Jackson house (located at 648
Canal). Hot Days Cool Art will be on
Sunday, June 22, 2014 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Tickets are $20.00 for Adults,
$15.00 for Students, Kids 10 year old and younger are free. Proceeds from the event will go to the
Village Fine Art and the Milford Historical Society. Music and Refreshments will be offered.
Tickets are
available at the SHAC, the Milford Historical Society Museum, Acorn Farms and
Main Street Art.
Spend an enjoyable
afternoon supporting the arts and help us continue the vision of Mary Jackson
and Suzanne Haskew.
For those who don't know who Mary Jackson was, here is a link to her story and the story of the Milford home that she owned and left to the Milford Historical Society. Many readers of this blog may be too young to remember the TV show Walton's Mountain, in which Mary Jackson played one of the Baldwin sisters or may not have seen her in her many film appearances. You can come see her Milford home, to which she returned each year to spend time with childhood friends and enjoy original art, too.
