 Flowers of Hope 2008
Thanks to all the glass artists who participated in the
2008 Flowers of Hope campaign.


Flowers of Hope is a program where talented artists make small 8" x 8" flower panels to be given to women diagnosed with breast cancer.    Our wish is to bring a little joy and hope into their life at a time when they could desperately use some.

This was our fourth year, and thanks to the generosity of local glass artists
we will lift the spirits of over 70 women!

A hearty THANK YOU to all the artists who participated in 2008.

The 2008 Flowers of Hope Panels On Display At LightGarden Glass Art



In 2007 we collected 61 panels. In 2008 we collected 71!
THANKS to everyone who participated and made this program such a great success.

These panels will be on display at the Women's Imaging Center At Rogue Valley Medical Center during the month of October 2008. They will then be distributed to women recently diagnosed with breast cancer -- as a symbol of love and hope from our contributing artists.
