An Intimate Evening with Laurel Burch
July 2003
On July 24th,
2003, we were pleased and honored to welcome Laurel Burch,
recipient of the Rockefeller Institute 'Ray of Hope' Award. The
Fremont Bank Foundation graciously sponsored this incredible event
to support the HERS Breast Cancer Foundation.
At right, Laurel is welcomed by Hattie Hyman Hughes, President of the Fremont Bank Foundation.
Attendees had the privilege of meeting Laurel and viewing some of her amazing artwork. In addition, a beautiful painting was unveiled, which will find its home in the new location of Bras for Body & Soul, in Washington West.

Many of us have loved the art, jewelry and clothing of Laurel Burch since the mid 1960's. We were proud to offer this rare opportunity to meet the 'woman behind the art' and hear her inspiring story.
As an artist, Laurel finds her inspiration, courage and wisdom within the heart of humanity. "When I am strong," she says, "I share my strength with you. When I cannot quite find my way, I hold on to the strength and comfort I see in you. We are here for each other."
