As of now, there is not an art program scheduled for Edison Elementary School for the Fall of August 2009. As a parent and artist; this really saddens me. We have joined the Art for Edison group and strive to raise $60,000 by May 28th 2009. The money will help hire either a full time art teacher and purchase all the supplies, or to have an artist in residence program, depending on how much money we raise. You can learn more on the Art for Edison website www.artforedison.org
There will be a silent auction on May 8th, from 6-9 pm with announcements at 9:30 at the Namaste Hospice and Events Center, 3945 Tennyson Street, Denver map
This will be a great chance to purchase amazing art at great prices that will support an even greater cause! Partial List of artists: Scott Adsit, Kym Bloom, Michael Brohman, Amands Cross, Tina Cross, Rachel Tai Davis, Nicole Hyde, Peter Holcombe, Rian Kerran, Sara Lou Klein, Lindy Lyman, Kate McPhee, Kirk Norlin, Janan Platt, Dean Rivas, Iris Scadden, Jazz Segura, Robin Segura, Michael Wais, Bryce Widom, Jennifer Wilson and more.
Here is the piece Peter Holcombe Photography is Donation for the auction.
“Locks on Locks” 21×31
This year our daughter attended her last year of pre-school at St. Louis Early Learning Center, and is now moving on to kindergarten. Our two years at St. Louis have been fantastic and we have adored all of her teachers (We love you Mrs. Lynne, Mrs. Yvonne, Mrs. Arla and Mrs. Lori!). As a thank you for a fabulous introduction to school for our daughter, we wanted to give something back to the school. We brainstormed with the administration about what they needed most, we decided to create one of our custom, hand-crafted books to illustrate the ELC experience and donate it in addition to a gift certificate to Holcombe Photography to the Angel Auction. We spent two days photographing the kids and were so fortunate to really experience pre-school first-hand through our lenses. Watching the joy that a four year old experiences so frequently throughout the day was refreshing and rekindled our spirits. Be sure to check out the book we created for the St. Louis auction as well as the rest of the images from our time with the kiddos. Enjoy!

We have been looking for a charity to get behind and support for the last few years. We have helped with quite a few in various ways but haven’t found the one that we feel is a good match until now.
First Descents is committed to curing young adults of the emotional effects of cancer and empowering them to regain control of their lives by experiencing whitewater kayaking and other challenging adventure sports in a safe, fun and supportive environment. With Kathy and myself being avid kayakers we know the power these types of experiences can have on someone’s lives. Much of our determination and success can be directly linked to lessons we have learned high up on cliffs and in raging rivers. We are looking forward to telling the story of this great organization and raising some money for them along the way. Please check out First Descents for more info and how you can get involved.
Here are a few images from the First Descents Gala (It was a hat party!) that was held last Saturday night at the Beaver Creek Ritz-Carlton.
webhank says: I really dig the “mad hatter” photo - that is a great shot!
Yes, I am amazed how making this a hat party livened up the atmosphere of a silent auction.
Peter Holcombe is a Denver - Boulder, Colorado wedding, portrait and commercial photographer. Specializing in portrait photography in dramatic locations. Available globally!
From one artist to another - While it saddens me to see that schools are being forced to cut art and music programs, I am glad to see that there is an outpouring of community support in favor of keeping them! It is good to know that people recognize the value of art in the schools. I would not be who I am today if it were not for the encouragement of my grade school art teacher.
The site looks great! I love that it is so bright and fresh… Can’t wait to see those engagement photos of Andrew and Rach!
