Ms. Hadley is the Art Club Coordinator at the Ferguson Crestmont Club. She spearheaded a unique partnership with Rainbow Bakery to have an Art Show that featured original works created by members showcasing their talents, humor, and individuality. “Every day, I get to witness the incredible creative process of our members, and I am so glad to be able to share their art with a larger audience. I hope these artworks bring as much joy into your lives as they do mine!” The Crestmont Creatives Art Show was on exhibit for one week in November where patrons could view all of the submitted and displayed artwork!

All works were available for purchase with 100% of the proceeds benefiting the Ferguson Crestmont Art Fund. In fact,
several pieces actually sold during the public display! Connor, a 10-year-old member in the Art Club was one of the participants who had their painting purchased, which gave him pure excitement and confidence!
Special thank you to our friends at Rainbow Bakery for their help and enthusiasm during the show!
