玛娜·帕利基金 benefiting 立博中文版’s Art 项目

立博中文版 is proud to announce the establishment of an fund in memory of longtime board member 默娜Palley. 玛娜和她结婚63年的丈夫, 谢尔登Palley, have been true champions for visual arts education. 2019年6月, 立博中文版 was proud to present our first Patron of the Arts Award to Myrna and 谢尔登Palley.

When we look at 立博中文版’s vibrant arts programming, every aspect is influenced and generously supported by Myrna and 谢尔登Palley. Myrna frequently judged our annual 现成物品的艺术 Exhibition, ensuring students were recognized for their artistic talents. She and Sheldon always sponsored, attended, and bid generously at our 为爱艺术慈善拍卖会. Myrna helped develop this annual event to support arts education in our public schools and served as its long-time co-chair. The Palley's home showcases children’s artwork next to pieces from well-known artists from across the world, communicating the value of children’s visual arts education.

最近, Myrna and Sheldon’s significant philanthropic investments have been the fuel behind our creation of an “arts in education training space” and master-level workshops with recognized artists like Pablo Cano, 以他发现的木偶而闻名. With the Myrna and 谢尔登Palley Workshop Pavilion at 立博中文版 Ocean Bank Center for Educational Materials, 学生们现在正在学习新的体裁, 包括“发现物品的艺术”,来自他们的老师. 结果是, students engage in complex artistic projects that build critical thinking skills, 不同的技巧, 艺术家的眼睛, 通常是团队合作, as art pieces become larger group installations.

We are forever thankful to Myrna and Sheldon for their belief in our work, 他们的长期资助, and especially for selflessly supporting thousands of local public school students on their road to becoming artists. The Palley’s passion for the arts is transforming our community. 立博中文版 board and staff are privileged to remember and honor 默娜Palley with the 玛娜·帕利基金, which will support our public school art teachers and their students for many years to come.
