We thank you for your generosity and support 

Artisans offers to our community the artwork of more than 35 different Central Florida artists. We have photography, stained and fused glass, fine art paintings, fiber art, leather goods, jewelry, home decor and gift items.  We launch our Bra-Vo fundraiser in August every year to raise money to fund low or no cost diagnostics for breast cancer testing for Lake County residents. This effort culminates in October, during Breast Cancer Awareness Month with a month long event sponsored by Artisans.

Artisans supports both the Marilyn Dodge Scholarship for the Visual Arts and the Lee Dodge Scholarship for the Performing Arts. These scholarships are presented annually to recipients chosen by the Women's Committee of Fine Arts of Mount Dora from among local High School applicants.

The support of our Sponsors is essential in our programs that serve the community and we are very thankful to each of them. You can help Artisans to fulfill its mission, founded on the values that the arts are for everyone, and that everyone has a story worth telling, and that artistic expression makes a positive impact on the world around us. 

"The purpose of Art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls".

Loretta's first step towards "getting it done" is to listen well and understand exactly what her buyers and sellers want and need.  Then she channels her seemingly limitless energy, enthusiasm, experience, and area knowledge to turning her clients' real estate goals and dreams into reality.
