This Saturday October 5th – The Sky High Reggae Takeover – an annual fundraiser with Lazy Man Dub Band Quartet, DJ Ruby Star and an epic dance party with Barthio! 5-11pm This is a donation appreciated event.
Please join us for a special cause! This year Sky High Reggae’s Backpack Art Program is partnering with Ruby Star Arts and Dogtown Roadhouse and we will be collecting monetary donations, gently used/nicely repackaged art supplies and art related gift cards (Michael’s or Dick Blick).
We will be purchasing art supplies with the donations and redistributing them to Asheville, NC families that have lost their homes and professional artists that have lost their studios during Hurricane Helene.
Go to SKYHIGHREGGAE.COM for more event info and links to electronic gift cards.
Stay tuned – A very special art auction evening is coming in November sponsored by Dogtown, Sky High Reggae and Ruby Star Arts featuring artwork created by the Asheville artists that received donations. These works will be auctioned alongside Floyd artisans’ donated work.
This will be a wonderful way to continue to support our Appalachian neighbors while purchasing handmade art during the holidays. The proceeds from this auction will sponsor 10 Asheville artists to help replenish their studio supplies in order to begin creating and making an income again.
