POP ART, COMMUNITY INTERSECT AT BEACH 1xbet online casino 'S OPEN HOUSE FOR MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY

MANHATTAN -- The Beach 1xbet online casino will celebrate two world-changers with its Martin Luther King Day Open House.

The free Day-On Open House is 10 a.m. to noon Monday, Jan. 17. The event, funded by a 1xbet online casino Giving Program Grant from Target, celebrates the holiday as a day on, not a day off.

Activities are organized around the 1xbet online casino 's exhibition "Big Shots: Andy Warhol Photography from the '70s & '80s." Participants can learn more about the artist's pop art while contributing to the community. Activities include creating photo self-portraits in Warhol's signature style to celebrate individuality and helping with the Martin Luther King community paint-by-numbers project.

"One of Warhol's most recognized pieces is 'Campbell's Soup,'" said Kathrine Schlageck, senior educator at the Beach 1xbet online casino . "We are encouraging attendees to bring a can of soup to benefit the Flint Hills Breadbasket."

To continue the soup can theme, Beach Buddies and family members have been invited to create original soup can labels that will be on display at the 1xbet online casino Jan. 17-23. Cans of soup for the Breadbasket will be accepted throughout the week at the 1xbet online casino .

Reservations are not necessary, but children must be accompanied by an adult. The event is free; however, there is a suggested donation of one can of 1xbet online casino per person.

The 1xbet online casino Giving Program is part of ongoing efforts by Target to strengthen families and communities throughout the country. Since opening its doors in 1962, Target has given 5 percent of its income to communities. Today that giving equals more than million every week.
