November 2023 & November 2024: I had the pleasure of donating my time and artwork to the Books For The ‘Burgh Charity Book Fair held at the Newburgh Brewing Company in Newburgh, NY. This annual “grown-up book fair” helps local libraries receive brand new children’s books. I painted canvases live during the events. My canvases were then donated and displayed at the Newburgh Free Library and Marlboro Free Library to artistically illustrate the importance of reading in our communities.
