No I'm not recording one (count your blessings).

All were up by and on Thanksgiving!

Studio 4 "Have a Heart" Food Drive



When you visit Studio 4 this Black Friday weekend, please consider dropping off a non-perishable food donation. Now through February, Studio 4 is conducting a food drive to benefit Food for Others. Food for Others, the largest distributor of free food directly to people in need in Northern Virginia, provides the assistance vitally needed by our unemployed and low-income neighbors. They provide a safety net for those who suddenly face unforeseen emergencies such as a family illness or the loss of a job or a spouse.

Items donated will become main components of an interactive art installation which will open to the public on February 11th, 2012 during Workhouse Art Center’s Second Saturday Art Walk.

YOU can be a part of this exciting art installation and help Northern Virginians in need by donating canned or non-perishable food items at Studio 4.

Follow the Have a Heart project and other Studio 4 happenings on our facebook page.
