Earlier this month MCS had a presence at the Grosse Pointe art festival, Art & Sole and we did sketches for the Belle Isle Aquarium. We raised $1200.00 over the two days and below is the letter we received back from the Belle Isle Conservancy thanking us for the donation. Well done MCS!

Art & Sole Festival

Motor City Sketch will be at the Art & Sole Fest in Grosse Pointe this weekend doing sketches and selling original artwork all the proceeds from these will be donated to the Belle Isle Aquarium and their efforts to open on a regular basis and to maintain costs of doing so. Jay Shimko, Jon Wallace, John Marroquin, Chris Sanchez and Bruce Gerlach will be on hand doing sketches. All the artists will also be selling their own materials such that one would see at cons.

Come on down, this will be the first time illustrators will be represented at the festival!
