Are you looking for ways to bring some whimsical fun to your loved ones this holiday season?
Whether on the tree or under the tree, alumna Deane Valentine Bowers has the perfect customizable gift for your Merrie-Woode girl, family, or friends this year.
Deane is an environmental artist who creates colorful mixed-media assemblage pieces from abandoned and reclaimed materials such as bottle caps, pieces of wire, twisted nails, and metal scraps. Some of her most beloved pieces are her renderings of Merrie-Woode scenes, including happy camper and cabin ornaments personalized for the recipient.
This year, Deane has graciously offered to give a portion of her sales for the month of November to Camp Merrie-Woode in support of the Conservation and Sustainability Endowment. If you place your order by December 1st, Deane will guarantee delivery by Christmas and will donate 30% of the proceeds to Merrie-Woode. All of Deane’s pieces will be included in this promotion, so please explore her website to discover all of the beautiful artwork available for sale. To participate in the promotion, please let Deane know at check-out that you are part of the Merrie-Woode family. Items not requiring Christmas delivery are also eligible for the promotion.

Each piece of Deane’s art is unique, and by purchasing one of her creations, you are turning a discarded item in to a treasured piece of beauty. As Deane says, “When damaged, disconnected and incomplete things come together in an unexpected and imaginative way, a distinct plainness becomes a raw form of beauty.” You will feel a surge of joy each time you look at Deane’s work on the walls of your home or the boughs of your Christmas tree.
Place your orders at www.DeaneVBowersArt.com by December 1st and support Merrie-Woode’s Conservation and Sustainability Endowment this holiday season!
