Aug. 7, 2011 - PRLog -- The Uptown Gallery journey began with a small group of concerned citizens realizing that the handicapped adults lacked community involvement. With the concerns of these people, as well as local businesses and many volunteers, their voyage has guided them to a beautiful facility with an atmosphere of warm and caring people from all walks of life. The local art community opened their hearts and gave of their talents to help this dream come true. The Gallery Group is the most amazing example of how people working together through the art world can create not only beautiful art, but create an environment of peace and harmony. When you walk into the studio, you feel welcomed and amazed by the beauty of the art and the spirit of these extraordinary people. This is truly an example of how dreams really do come true. What an inspiration for Mount Airy and surrounding community

Lobe was introduced to the gallery by her friend and artist, Carol Engler. "I immediately realized this was a wonderful project. My first time working in the gallery studio helping the adult students create art was so gratifying. I felt and believe I received so much more than I gave by looking at the smiling eyes and faces and seeing their beautiful creations."

The works of the students are included in the Uptown Gallery with the fine art of professional artists' works. "I'm continually inspired by the work of the students", says Lobe. "One thing they all seem to have in common is a free spirit when they are creating. The students  are creating from their hearts and it translates beautifully in their works."

Lobe decided to donate 50% of her sales because she truly believe in this mission.

The Mission is to foster a compassionate and sharing atmosphere where local artists and the handicapped community can join together in creating art. This will not only enrich the greater Mount Airy area through the arts, but will provide the handicapped with a place to socialize, be inspired and to have the benefit of this beautiful environment.

Opening Reception if Sunday, 3-5pm at 615 N. Main St., Mt. Airy, NC.
Wine tasting and appetizers being served.
