Sept. 4 Fundraiser To Benefit The Harwich Fund

Filed Under: Non Profit News

The Guild of Harwich Artists and The Harwich Fund of The Cape Cod Foundation are partnering in a fundraising art sale Saturday, Sept. 4, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Doane Park, 10 Post Office Square, in Harwich Port.

Members of the 65-person Guild of Harwich Artists will donate artworks for sale at end-of-season, exceptionally low, “red dot” prices. The two nonprofit organizations will share the proceeds from the sale which, in turn, benefits the Harwich community.

The Guild of Harwich Artists awards a grant to a local children’s organization and a scholarship to a local graduating high school student pursuing an art education degree annually.

The Harwich Fund, a permanent endowment focused on the needs of the Harwich community, has issued nearly $10,000 in grants in the past year to groups supporting Harwich residents, from youth to seniors.

Members from both organizations, as well as their respective local grant recipients, will be available to answer questions about their missions during the event. The local seven-piece Sound Dunes Swing Combo will perform from 2 to 4 p.m.

The event is free. The rain date is Sunday, Sept. 5.
