Toast: a benefit for The Art Corner

A few months ago (April 24th 2008) one of Salem’s businesses The Art Corner suffered a horrible fire.  Over the past couple of months we have seen them keep their chin up and move forward, resurrecting the business in a new location.

Many of the areas local artists, photographers and businesses use the framing services of  The Art Corner faithfully knowing that they always try to make a positive impact on our community.  Now it is our turn to help them. Being a patron of the arts and loving to see small local business succeed, we feel this benefit is a worthy cause. Even though this info is all over town it’s our pleasure to repost the following.
