Orion’s Attic generated $3,100 for Pyramid Atlantic during last year’s sale and expects to top that number this year. The money supports a great contemporary arts center dedicated to the creation and appreciation of hand papermaking, printmaking, digital arts, and the art of the book.
“We provide artists with a safe supportive community and studio space in which to create and hone their craft,” Pyramid Atlantic Executive Director Jose Dominguez says. “We inspire young people and adults through arts education on-site in our studios and offsite at schools and libraries and bringing people together through art events that promote quality of life, positive regional and community image, as well as economic opportunities for local restaurants and cafes in Downtown Silver Spring. “Pyramid has quietly become one of the cornerstones of the visual arts community. It has developed artists whose works now grace the walls of museums and galleries and teachers whose words fill classrooms and studios at universities and art centers around the world. Pyramid Atlantic has built award winning education programs that have served youth and adults throughout Maryland, DC, and Virginia and kept arts education at the forefront of school and community leaders’ consciousness.”
Working with nonprofits such as Pyramid Atlantic is at the in the Attic. We seek not just to make a living but to make a difference.
Highlights of this Saturday’s sale abound but two of our favorite attraction are:
