Heart’s Desire
Hearts are one of the world’s most universal symbols, with many meanings including: love, peace, unity, affection, desire, passion, charity, compassion, devotion, and enlightenment.
The student-artists that benefit from our fundraising, some without the benefit of an instructor, display a passion in their art, a will to create, that can come only from desire. Desire, as a purely emotional state, can come only from the emotional center of our being, the heart. Their art is a desire of the heart, hence, Heart’s Desire.
This annual scholarship benefits Lucia Mar High School Students demonstrating an ability and passion for 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional art. In 2011, seven recipients were awarded a total of $2800.
The art offered for the Heart’s Desire fundraiser are original works, created specifically for this scholarship, by El Camino Art Association members.
100% of Heart’s Desire proceeds go to the Student Scholarship Fund.
