Since 2008, the HomeFront ArtSpace therapeutic art program for homeless moms residing at the Family Preservation Center shelter in Ewing has healed battered souls, and discovered hidden talent, by creating an avenue of self-expression and empowerment through art.

“The unique perspective and history of the artists shines through in their work,” explains ArtSpace Director, Ruthann Traylor, “and that makes these notecards and holiday cards something very personal and powerful. The women who created these cards can’t believe their work is part of a product that people buy.  It helps them build the self-esteem they need to move forward.”

 

“HomeFront is so proud of these cards!” added HomeFront Executive Director Connie Mercer. “They are such a positive and joyful experience for everyone involved - the women who illustrate their hopes and dreams, the sender and those who receive them.  That’s what the holidays are all about.”

 

This year’s holiday card assortment, themed “Home for the Holidays”, can be purchased at HomeFront headquarters, 1880 Princeton Avenue in Lawrenceville, by calling Ms. Traylor at (609) 883-7500 ext: 316 or by email at ruthannt@homefrontnj.org.  Individual packs of eight cards are $15 a box or $25 for two boxes.  Bulk orders are welcome and can be personalized if ordered in advance.

 

All proceeds from the sale of ArtSpace notecards and holiday cards help fund the many programs for the women and children at the shelter.
