Suzanne Muldrow, Frankie Bush, Patz Fowle, Heidi Bond, Carolyn Atkinson, Danny Wagner and Henna Koponen are just a few of the artists who are donating their work. Along with these artists, Black Creek hosted a "Celebrity Artist" class with Patz Fowle where a few local Hartsvillians got together to create a piece for the show.
