Dawn to Dawn Action on Homelessness is excited to announce an exhibit and sale of fabric art at the former Pearl Ellis Gallery in Comox.

From Oct. 11 to 15, more than two dozen highly original quilt panels, created by the North Island Quilters for Community Awareness, will be on display.

This Making It Home exhibit marks the launch of the second in a series of four raffles, a major fundraiser for Dawn to Dawn.

The public is invited to drop by to view the display, buy a raffle ticket, or better yet purchase their very own work of art.

The group is also encouraging members of the business community to help support the homeless in our community by buying a special piece to hang in their office or boardroom.

All are welcome to drop by between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. during any day of the exhibit and support this worthwhile project.

The former Pearl Ellis Gallery is located downstairs at 1729 Comox Ave. Dawn to Dawn would like to thank the Town of Comox for its generosity in allowing the use of this space.

Dawn to Dawn was registered as a non-profit society in 2007 with the mandate to provide housing and support services to individuals who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless.

For more information, e-mail islandglimpses@shaw.ca. or visit Dawn to Dawn at the showing.
