One Great Idea

Hopefully many of you are already aware of The Athena Art Society. They've been promoting women and their artistic endeavors for over one hundred years. Their latest project called the "Mona Project" is one great idea. This fundraising project, finally something other than an art auction, consists of members personal interpretations of the Mona Lisa.
They have printed wonderful, unique cards, purchased in packs of 8 or one at a time and can be found in various places around town. I've included just these three images, there are many more great interpretations. We have them and I believe the American Gallery, also in Sylvania, has them as well. If you're looking for a truly hip card to send to a friend look for these, and, you'll be supporting a local group of women artists!
