Art for Charity

Art for Charity, hosted by Michael Mitchell Interiors, is a pop up gallery featuring work from South Carolina Artists, with proceeds benefiting local non-profits charities.

Michael Mitchell, a native of Johns Island who decided to move back home after several years in New York, has developed an inspiring way to help support eight Lowcountry charities. The Art for Charity Gallery at 438 King Street, opened on May 13, 2010 and will continue showing until June 13, 2010.  

The style of the work ranges from traditional to modern, with both two and three dimensional and encompasses a variety of media. All of the pieces were hand selected by Michael himself.

Each of the eight charities will be honored with a reception inside the Art for Charity gallery. The receptions are held Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights throughout the month. Notable restaurants in the Lowcountry, such as Halls Chophouse, Social and Jasmine Porch, will cater the receptions. A $10 donation at the door is suggested.

The Tri-County Habitat for Humanity affiliates will be hosting their reception on Thursday, June 10, 2010 from 5:30pm-7:30pm. Come out and join us for wine, appetizers and a sample of some of the Lowcountry’s favorite artists. The reception is catered by Whole Foods, Food for the Southern Soul and In Seasons Catering. The gallery is also open 10-6 p.m. daily today through June 13 and you can learn more about each artist, as well as other benefiting charities and receptions by visiting www.artforcharityblog.com.
