For the first time in the Center’s history, the opening of Art in Action will also kick-off a scholarship drive of the same name. Using the crowdfunding platform gofundme.com, the Center aims to provide more than $35,000 in scholarships to students with disabilities and those facing economic difficulties in the community.

In lieu of buying tickets to the opening event, attendees will be encouraged to donate to the campaign. See “Art in Action” Exhibit at Main Line Art Center page 8
