The Orange Dove
Project
An orange dove is a rare, mythical animal –
it represents equality, peace, and bringing people together through art!
On Saturday, June 8th
from 1:00 – 4:00 PM, Local artist Mary Telfer will
orchestrate this exciting, interactive art experience for all ages and abilities at the
Northern Illinois Special Recreation Association (NISRA), 285
Memorial Drive, Crystal Lake. Don’t miss your chance to participate
in something rewarding and unusual.
This is an opportunity for you to have fun, create, and
explore your relationship to nature and the animal world. Telfer’s inspiration comes from her passion
for working with people of all abilities.
The event will be staffed by volunteers from the local art community and
will feature NISRA artists Coral Brady, and John Hudachek. You’ll have the chance to move to the sounds
of DJ Liz and enjoy refreshments from Panera bakery - and orange tootsie pops!
Coral will be teaching an acrylic workshop from 1:30 - 2:30. John will be teaching a colored pencil workshop from 2:30 - 3:30.
The mission of Northern Illinois Special Recreation
Association (NISRA) is enriching the lives of people with disabilities through
meaningful recreation experiences.
