‘A Brush With Passion’ joins Belk for Girls Night Out

Beaufort’s innovative “A Brush With Passion” Painting Studio and Gallery will participate in this fall’s “Girls’ Night Out” to be held at Belk of Beaufort, 332 Robert Smalls Parkway, Wednesday, September 12, from 5 to 8:30 p.m.  Jocelyn Mims, A Brush with Passion owner and artist-in-residence, will demonstrate some of the techniques she uses to guide people to create their own works of art. This is the fourth time Belk of Beaufort is hosting a “Girls’ Night Out” event, which is free to the public.
“It’s a great way to meet people and get the word out about what we do at A Brush With Passion,” said Mims. “Even someone who has never painted can create a beautiful finished piece in only a couple of hours. However, just describing it is not nearly as convincing as showing how it’s done. I am very excited about this opportunity and honored to have been invited to participate.”
Nearly a dozen local merchants and groups will participate by giving demonstrations, samples, information and more. Belk will be displaying the latest fall styles and offering special discounts on purchases of ladies’ contemporary apparel, dresses, handbags and accessories, intimate apparel and ladies’ shoes. Several hundred people are expected to attend and light refreshments will be served. Visitors can also register to win a free trip to Los Angeles and $1,000.
In addition to A Brush With Passion, demonstrations will be given by Bitty’s Flowers, Cakes by Teesha, Dr. Bruce Wyles (tooth whitening), as well as Dancing Dogs Yoga, Lowcountry Zumba and Shag dancing. There will be free bang trims and brow waxing by Bangs Salon, free chair massages by AquaMed Spa, free wine tasting by September Oaks Winery and nutrition and weight loss information from Visalus.
The event is being covered by live remote broadcast on 104.9, The Surf. For more information, contact Jocelyn Mims at 843-379-2297, or Belk Department Store at 843-522-9599.
