ST. JOSEPH, MO— Proceeds from the sale of local artwork will benefit arts in St. Joseph.

In conjunction with First Saturdays, the Allied Arts Council is offering an Art Recycle sale Saturday, October 3 from 11:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. at the Allied Arts Council Conference Room, 128 S. 8th Street. The Allied Arts Council has collected many pieces of art over the years, but said sadly there is not room to display it all and it has sat unseen in the Council’s basement.

The collection includes pieces from originals to prints. Much of the collection includes and contains landscapes, portraits and still life. Lots of photography along with oil and acrylic paintings will be featured at the sale, and many are framed and ready to hang.

The Council said the art is priced to SELL so you can pick up a piece for as little as $5.00 but never over $200.00, and all proceeds benefit the programs of the Allied Arts Council.

The Allied Arts Council was organized in 1963 to provide service to St. Joseph area arts organizations, artists, and the general public.
