Tiki Bowl Event A Success



Chris Jones at Popcorn Initiative is a good man who recently put together a great fundraiser for AAF Greenville featuring bowling pins. Here is what he had to say about the project:

I just wanted to highlight a fun little art project I did for an event that AAF Greenville held a couple of weeks ago. The event was TikiBowl - a bowling extravaganza that featured bowling pins turned into works of art by local creatives and artists. My take on it was the folk arty doll above. By the time I was done carving this lovely lady I was covered from head to toe in sawdust. It was an amazing challenge, but I loved exploring a new art form. In the end the pins were auctioned off to benefit the club. The funny part is the high bidder on mine was my wife (I guess she was serious when she said she liked it).
