� e Corpus Christi Festival of the Arts is just around the cor-ner. � e Festival will take place this year from March 30-April 1, 2012, returning to Sherrill Park and the Art Center of Cor-pus Christi and expects to draw thousands of people to celebrate the arts on the beautiful Corpus Christi Bayfront.

Formed as a 501c3 corporation in 2010, the Corpus Christi Festi-val of the Arts is host to the largest free regional annual celebration of the arts, showcasing the art-works of many artists from across the United States, in addition to a bevy of wonderful performances in dance, voice and music, and independent cinema screenings. � e festival’s signature attraction features the internationally recog-nized artists that create an Italian Street Painting in the courtyard area of the Art Center. Aside from the wide variety of music, voice and dance performances in a non-traditional venue, vari-ous artists will be onsite o� ering

An Artist’s style and expres-sion captures that tantalizing mo-ment when art opens the heart and allows one to share some-thing special with the world. Expressed through the selected media they use, the creative work of artists will be showcased in two featured Exhibits for the 2012 Festival of the Arts. Prospectus and Entry form for both exhibits are available on the Festival of the Arts website www.ccfestivalarts.org. � e juried exhibits that will grace the walls of the Meadows and Kucera galleries of the Art Center of Corpus Christi from

About Goodwill Industries of South Texas Inc.

Although many still associate the name “Goodwill” almost ex-clusively with our donations and store operations, Goodwill is ac-tually so much more than a great place to drop o� donations and shop. Goodwill believes in the

power of work. � rough work a person can gain a sense of dignity and independence. Our South Texas community also grows and prospers when more individuals are working and actively contrib-uting to society.

When you donate your un-wanted, gently-used items such as clothing, household items or even furniture to Goodwill, you are helping someone in South Texas � nd meaningful employ-ment. Donations are converted into dollars through sales in our stores. � ese dollars then fund Goodwill’s mission of providing

Goodwill currently maintains a variety of outsourc-ing contracts such as janitorial, grounds keeping and document destruction. >>>
