Another thank you to one of Round Rock's fantastic local artists.

Just donated a portion of art sales to another local nonprofit, 2010 Pick With Austin, Inc.! They donate free guitars and other musical instruments to youth that struggle with depression and other mental health issues. Here's a direct quote from the founder describing their current fundraising initiative:

"We are raising funds to cover the fees for our new storage facility, made necessary by the large number of guitars and related music equipment that has come in over the past week.

With some of this new equipment, we will be putting together some "Build Your Own Guitar (and then keep it)" classes in Round Rock, TX, this upcoming summer. The classes will be for ages 8 to 18 and all materials will be provided. These are right now contained in boxes (guitar bodies, necks, amps, hardware, electronics, etc.). It was necessary to acquire an additional environmentally controlled storage space for these and overflow of other incoming musical instrument donations.

The additional monthly cost was not in our very meager budget, so we are reaching out in hopes of donations in support of our outreach in the community.

Please visit the website or social media to learn more."

One more shot at it. We are still not half way to our $700 goal. We are not a funded non-profit, we fly solely by the seat of our pants stretching every penny as best we can. We have no pay or salaries, 100% of what comes in goes back out into the community.

We are trying to cover the costs of our new additional storage unit where we are staging electric guitars and amps that will go out to kids and teens here in Central Texas.

Help us out if you feel what we do is beneficial to the community.

The Downtowner Gallery is now proudly an official drop-off point for instrument donations for Pick With Austin, a local nonprofit that helps at-risk members of our community. Just this week, we received a gorgeous Fender guitar and Bronco amp, which will be going to help someone battling depression.

All instruments welcome for donation, including accessories like guitar strings, amps, etc. We just aren't able to take in your grand piano -- although contact us, and we'll find someone who can help!
