Exciting Times @ The StuFIRST FRIDAY SEPTEMBER CONTINUES WITH MARIO, 9/6/24!!!
AND...
AN UPDATE: Mural @ The Stu
Just quick update about our mural
FIRST FRIDAY WITH MARIO CONTINUES IN SEPTEMBER,
Greetings Arts Friends! We are writing to inform you of a schedule adjustment for the First Fridays Mural Project. Due to schedule constraints, we have decided to postpone the mural creation originally scheduled for September. The new date for the mural reveal event is now set for October 4, 2024.
About Mario and his Prodigy
Mario "Zore" Gonzalez has made significant contributions to the arts community. He has collaborated on many projects with two notable organizations here in Dubuque: Voices and The Boys & Girls Club. Mario’s guidance will provide Nico with an invaluable learning experience. The mural will symbolize the intersection of creativity and mentorship, and we believe it will inspire everyone who visits the music studio located in the Central Corridor.
Additionally we are excited to announce that Mario Gonzalez’s exhibit will continue to be displayed throughout September as planned. This exhibit has been a tremendous success, and we believe that extending it will offer additional value and inspiration to the community leading up to the mural event in October.
Thanks to Our Donors
We have raised $550 towards our $1200 goal. We would like to thank our art buyers and donors who have contributed so far. Again, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause and want to extend our heartfelt gratitude for your generous support. Your contribution plays a vital role in making these artistic endeavors possible, and we are committed to delivering a mural that will be worth the wait.
