The Art from the Heart art gallery will be held in the Cultural Arts Center at St. John's on the Lake. Come meet with Tony Busalacchi and browse his incredible artwork! This art gallery will be open on Friday, October 17 from 5 PM - 9 PM and Saturday, October 18 from 12 PM - 6 PM.
Tony Busalacchi, a 92-year-old Milwaukee native and artist, will be hosting an art gallery to benefit Capuchin Community Services. More than 100 original artworks, including mobiles, stabiles, collages, montages and more, created by Busalacchi and others will be made available to the public in exchange for a donation to CCS.
Funds raised through Art from the Heart will support Capuchin Community Services' mission. The Capuchins attend to the spiritual and basic needs of people experiencing homelessness, poverty and hunger through their two sites: St. Ben’s Community Meal and the House of Peace. In 2024, Capuchin Community Services provided nearly 39,000 meals at St. Ben’s and provided food assistance for 21,390 community members at the House of Peace, including more than 3,200 Thanksgiving and Christmas food boxes.
Since 2018, Tony and his wife Pat held similar art fundraisers benefiting CCS, raising approximately $250,000 for CCS to provide meals, food pantry items, clothing and much more for people experiencing homelessness and poverty.
