LaFontsee Galleries Sponsors the New Camel Booth


Returning sponsors, LaFontsee Galleries, have decided to sponsor our new Camel Booth. We are excited by the opportunity this booth provides us to educate West Michigan about the importance of these fascinating animals and all they do to help communities adjust to climate change and alleviate poverty and hunger. Thank you, LaFontsee Galleries, for your global vision and continuing support.

LaFont sees the Ducks and Geese. Sheep go Underground.



The LaFontsee Gallery/Underground Studio is sponsoring both the Ducks and Geese booth and the Sheep booth. An eye for truth and beauty inspired these important members of the local art scene to see the value of ending hunger. The LaFontsee Gallery is no newcomer to charitable activities. They are currently involved in supporting numerous charities of many sorts including God's Kitchen, Gilda's Club, and the Urban Institute for the Contemporary Arts.
Ducks and sheep will be given to the Navajo Project. The ducks will be part of an early detection system for the West Nile Virus, allowing the community to take action against the spread of the disease before it reaches levels threatening to humans and larger livestock. The sheep are part of a selective breeding program that aims to improve the genes of the local sheep herd.
Thank you, LaFontsee Galleries, for having the vision to provide hope.
