The Annual Donor Wall was designed by local artist Mike Twery. The purpose of the wall is to recognize our annual investors in a creative and unique way, while also bringing beauty to the Club, as The wall is the first thing you see when you walk in the Club. We hope that it makes you smile. The image you see above is just a section of the wall.

About the Artist

Mike was raised in Lynchburg and has recently retired from ten years of teaching to pursue art full time. He is a trained artist through the Rhode Island School of Design and San Francisco Art Institute, where he graduated with an MFA in painting. Mike obtained his teacher license from Lynchburg College. You can find Mike’s work throughout Lynchburg in places like Givens Books, Amazement Square, Forest Elementary School, and the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Lynchburg, to name a few. He has worked with us on other projects through Artzone to paint two murals with Club kids. Mike’s gallery is on Court Street in Downtown Lynchburg, next to Babcock’s Auto Service.

The investment given to commission the Annual Donor Wall was given in honor of Jimmy & Dona Forehand of Lynchburg, VA
