Artist donates to Mission

Fillmore artist Wana Klasen (pictured above right), donated her painting entitled “Lullaby” to the fundraising efforts of Angels Over Africa Mission. Wana is pictured with Ferdae Garami, Founder and Director of the Mission. The cultural evening included live music, a slide presentation and art auction. Proceeds from the auction of art are being used to provide biodegradable diapers to the children of Haiti following the disastrous earthquake there. The event, held at the Clarion Hotel in Bakersfield, was organized through the combined efforts of the Angels Over Africa Mission and the African Association of Kern County.
