As I’ve posted previously, every year Barbara Erdmann Photography donates a portion of proceeds from sales of artwork to The Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk, sponsoring families and children who need financial assistance so they can participate in the aquarium’s summer educational programs.

Last year, Barbara Erdmann Photography supported 8 kids in summer camp, and I’m pleased to report that in Summer 2014 I’ll be supporting 15 deserving kids’ participation in the Maritime Aquarium’s recreational programs. This support is a direct result of the wonderful support I received in the past year from everyone who sells and purchases my photos, including my favorite designers and my retail stores: Lillian August (Greenwich and Norwalk); Pimlico (New Canaan); Parc Monceau (Westport); Bel Mondo (Westport); Manor Home (Larchmont); BB abode (Darien); Gallery 52 (Rye); and Rider Gallery (Orchard Park). (See more details on my Retail Galleries page.)

Thanks to all, and I know that the summer-camp kids thank you, too.
