Local Wine Events

This February 23, 2012 We Care Academy will be hosting our 2nd Annual Cocktails and Canvas wine tasting and art auction. The proceeds will benefit children’s arts and education. During the event patrons will have the opportunity to mingle, enjoy fine wine, listen to music, and view some fantastic works of art. Patrons can also take solace in knowing that they are helping to provide much needed resources for students in Metro Atlanta.

Due to major budget constraints, many school systems are cutting their art programs. Studies show that students who participate in the arts have great academic standing and higher creative skills. By cutting the arts programs, children are missing out on the opportunity to express themselves. We Care Academy's Keep Arts Alive Campaign was established to help give those students an outlet to their creativity. As a nonprofit organization We Care Academy focuses on helping our community by providing quality educational and youth development services for Metro Atlanta. With your support and participation We Care Academy will be able to provide a quality academic assistance and arts program for students. For more information check out The Reading Corner or our Emerging Teen Artist program to learn more.

If you are or know any artists who would like to donate a piece or lend their voice in support of our Keep Arts Alive Campaign please contact Marketing and Special Events via email at development@wecareacademy.org subject line "Keep Arts Alive".
