National TV Personality Linda Ellerbee presented with Glass Café Candy Pendant at "Tapestry: A Day for Women" Scholarship Fundraiser
Posted Saturday May 13, 2006
Gallery8010 was an event sponsor for “Tapestry: A Day for Women”, an event designed to help raise scholarship funds for women interested in attending Indiana-University/Purdue University, Fort Wayne, Indiana.
Nearly 700 women attended the all-day event, which included keynote speaker Linda Ellerbee, breakout sessions, and a boutique and trade show venue.
“We’ve been a proud sponsor of Tapestry for the past three years,” said Donna Emley, co-owner of gallery8010. “When we found out Linda Ellerbee was going to be the keynote speaker, we asked if we could make a special presentation to her at the sponsorship reception to thank her for serving as a role model and inspiration for so many women.”
Ellerbee, author, TV personality, breast cancer survivor, and creator of Nick News, was presented with a Pink Candy Pendant from Emley to honor her as a pioneer, role model, and survivor. The exquisite glass pendant was created by The Glass Café, one of many fine artists featured at gallery8010.
Other gallery8010 artists were also on display in the boutique area of Tapestry during the shopping hours, including jewelry, purses, and pillows by Collem Designs; handpainted tableware and serveware by Berryware: stretched canvas quotable art by Maggie Lindley; antique button jewelry by My Mothers Buttons; handmade shell jewelry by Amati; textile wall art by Holly Berry; and others. The lucky raffle winner that day also used their gallery8010 gift certificate to make a purchase on the spot — a Red Candy Swirl Ring from The Glass Café !
