Partnership with Laurel Regional Hospital
LAG and the Laurel Region Hospital enjoy a partnership to bring art to the patients.  This began in 2006 and is embodied in two programs with the hospital.  The first and an annual Children's Art Competition that is held each spring.  LAG members help organize the and event and participate as some of the jurors.  To read more about the 2010 Youth Art Contest click here.  The second is an exhibit held within the hospital of LAG member's artwork.  The art rotates every 3 months, unless sold.  In the event of a sale, LAG collects a 20% commission, to benefit the Laurel Art Guild Scholarship Fund.  LAG awards scholarships to high schools in Laurel, Maryland for graduating seniors who will continue their studies in Fine Arts.  To see the exhibit visit the hospital at 7300 Van Dusen Road, in Laurel, Maryland.
