May 9 – Paint a Miracle Spring Luncheon in Rochester
Rochester, MI) – Paint a Miracle is excited to announce the date of its most anticipated event of the year. The annual Spring Luncheon is set to take place Friday, May 9, at the Royal Park Hotel in Rochester.
More than just a fundraiser, the luncheon is a vibrant exhibition of the exceptional talent within the Paint a Miracle community, showcasing an extensive array of artwork, including paintings, drawings, and fiber art, all available for purchase. The event will also feature a silent auction and a cash-prize raffle, adding to the excitement of the day.
The Spring Luncheon is also Paint a Miracle’s principal fundraising event of the year, and it plays a pivotal role in securing the vital funds needed for the studio’s operational costs.
“This event is the highlight of our year,” said Paint a Miracle Executive Director and Co-Founder Shelly Propson Lennon. “We can celebrate our artists and teach others about our mission by sharing thousands of our artists’ works in a beautiful setting.”
At Paint a Miracle, individuals with disabilities, both seen and unseen, are embraced for their unique talents and perspectives, finding a nurturing environment where they can express their creativity and gain recognition through the sale of their artwork. The studio’s artists have not only gained nationwide recognition but have also earned accolades and exhibited their works at prestigious venues, including the ArtPrize competition in Grand Rapids.
The inception of Paint a Miracle was inspired by the resilient spirit of Dr. Dale Propson and his artistic mentor, Helen Cuniff. Following a life-altering accident in 1985, Dr. Propson’s journey to recovery led him to discover the transformative power of art, a legacy that continues to inspire and empower through Paint a Miracle.
This year’s event will be held on the 40th anniversary of Dr. Propson’s accident and will feature his son, David Propson, the Deputy Books Editor at the Wall Street Journal, as speaker.
