National Art of Recovery Show 2009
National Art of Recovery Show 2009 Call for Entries: SAARA of Central Virginia is organizing its annual Art of Recovery Show in conjunction with National Recovery Month. The theme for this year’s show is “Renewal” and there are prizes for award-winning artists.
Art can testify to the amazing power of the creative spirit to foster freedom from addiction, and to the fact that an alcohol and drug-free life is available to all who want it.
This juried art show will feature art reflecting recovery from addiction, but is open to all, including people in recovery from addiction.
