Reconnect with your inner artist at Art with Heart. Enjoy a wonderful glass or two of wine – not to mention some amazing desserts – while receiving a hands-on painting lesson from a local artist. No previous painting experience is required and you'll leave with your very own piece of art, suitable for display at your home or office. Best of all, you'll enjoy a fun and unique evening with your peers and feel good knowing your participation supports the NFDA Professional Women's Conference Scholarship Fund and the FSF Women in Funeral Service Fund.
