Events | Donations
Over the past several years The
Fund has sponsored a variety of special events
in an effort to tap new sources of revenue to
support its ever-growing scholarship program.
In 2004, an art auction and furniture
show was held at The Willows. The Willows was
re-decorated with appropriate articles of furniture,
decorative pieces and original artworks. Food
and beverages were provided.
In February of 2005, a well-known
local artist – George Rothacker –
premiered over 70 paintings of the homes, businesses,
intersections and landscapes of Radnor Township
in support of The Fund. The show, “Paintings
of Radnor”, was also held at The Willows
with a Champagne reception and catering by Margaret
Kuo. Both paintings and prints were available
at the well-attended event. The show was extremely
successful for both the artist and The Fund.
In October of 2006, The Fund
hosted an exhibition and sale of original paintings
and prints by Mr. Rothacker. The show was entitled:
“Memories of the Open Road .“
and was held at The Newman & Saunders Galleries
in Wayne, Pa. The paintings portrayed a diverse
selection of cars, trucks and a motorcycle.
Catering was by Margaret Kuo.
A third art show, featuring the
works of George Rothacker, is scheduled for
the Fall of 2008.
