“I search for places, people, and situations that I find compelling, spending a great deal of time just looking. When I finally find what I’m looking for, I feel it like a physical sensation- an “a-ha!” experience. Then I paint or draw the subject as quickly and directly as possible, in order to describe my experience.”

- John Schmidtberger, Bucks County painter

#GivingTuesday will take place on November 27^th and will kick off the giving season by inspiring people to collaborate and give back. It is a global giving day that harnesses the collective power of individuals, communities, and organizations to encourage philanthropy and to celebrate generosity worldwide.

For the Arts & Cultural Council of Bucks County, #GivingTuesday allows them to make a difference in Bucks County’s arts and cultural environment. This year, the goal is to help “Save Oscar’s House,” the location where Oscar Hammerstein did most of his writing including Oklahoma! and The Sound of Music.

“Save Oscar’s House” needs your generosity before the end of 2018 when Highland Farm is threatened with a subdivision. Your donation will help prevent this and will allow the purchase and restoration of the property ensuring the future of Highland Farm as an iconic Bucks County landmark.
