North Shore Artists/SFCC Host Art Exhibit and Fundraiser in September
Milwaukee, Wis., Aug. 28, 2025 – Artists from throughout Milwaukee’s North Shore will exhibit and sell their works in late September to raise money for St. Francis Children’s Center.
The exhibit at the center, 6700 N. Port Washington Road, Glendale, is being organized by the Fox Point Artists group, which includes artists from Bayside, Fox Point, Glendale, River Hills and Whitefish Bay.
Thirty percent of the proceeds from each sale will go toward the center’s important work to support children. The two-day show, which is free and open to the public, will feature more than 100 pieces of art. Show hours are as follows:
- Opening Night: Friday, September 26, 2025, 6:30-9 p.m.
- Saturday Show: Saturday, September 27, 2025, 10 a.m.-2 p.m.
Peter Eichler, Fox Point Artists event co-chair, says “It’s an honor to be a part of a dynamic group of artists helping to forge a partnership between our group and St Francis Children’s Center. The arts and youth are two important pillars of any community, and we hope to uplift both through the support of this annual exhibition and sale.”
Cornelius Holt, Director of Marketing and Development at St. Francis Children’s Center, adds, “We are grateful to the Fox Points Artists for using their talents to uplift children in our community. This partnership not only highlights the power of the arts but also helps ensure that every child, regardless of their abilities or background, has the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive. Together, we’re creating a stronger, more connected community for all.”
