Nancy Button Young is our Honoree
Nancy Button Young is our Honoree
Nancy has been a valued member of the Board since she joined WInters Participation Gallery for the Arts. If there is something that needs to be done, she steps up. When we needed a secretary, Nancy stepped up. When we needed someone to work the booth at the volunteer fairs, Nancy stepped up. When we needed a “person in charge” at one of the Second Saturday Art Strolls, Nancy stepped up. When we needed an artist to feature for a Second Saturday Art Stroll, Nancy stepped up and enlisted her daughter, Erin Elizabeth, as well.
Nancy took on the job of designing notecards with the images of the various murals we have sponsored over the years, and she has donated her art for two fundraisers in which Winters Participation Gallery has participated. Additionally, for the past several years, Nancy has been the Gallery’s major donor on Big Day of Giving.
Through her time, talent, and generosity, she has helped ensure our organization continues to grow as a vital part of the community. She is a large part of how WPG continues to make Winters more beautiful . . . one wall at a time!
