GAINESVILLE FALL ARTS FESTIVAL


The Gainesville Arts Festival is just around the corner (November 6 & 7). Radiant Hands has had a booth each year since 2006. We need volunteers for 2 to 3 hour shifts throughout the weekend to do henna painting on hands. Our booth allows folks to see Muslims in a social setting, enjoy a part of our tradition and most of all see that a charity begun by Muslims helps any one regardless of race, religion or age. Contact your friends and come together for a great cause. Contact Pat@radianthands.org and let her know if you will be able to help.
