The Public Education & Business Coalition (PEBC) will be the beneficiary of an art and residence sale of a Capitol Hill mansion built in 1908.  The residence at 740 Marion Street is owned by local collector, Holly Parker.

 

The art includes pieces by many artists, prominently featuring the work of Peggy McGivern.  PEBC President, Rosann B. Ward, stated, “We are so grateful for the contribution by Holly Parker to benefit PEBC.  The sale of her outstanding collection of art will be of great benefit to PEBC and will support the educators and students of Colorado’s public schools.”

 

Public Education & Business Coalition (PEBC) is a Colorado-based non-profit partnership of business and education leaders committed to strengthening our public schools and improving academic achievement for all students.  For the past 26 years, PEBC has worked with more than 17,000 principals and teachers in K-12 education, impacting over 1,000 schools and one million students.

 

The house including the art will be open for public viewing on Saturday, April 18, 2009 from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at 740 Marion Street.
