Radford U. honors Dorothy Gillespie on Valentine’s Day

From my Inbox to you:

The Radford University Arts Society is hosting their second annual Give Your Heart to Art benefit on Valentine’s Day. The profits of the benefit will go to the RU Art Museum acquisition fund, but of particular note to Roanoke is that the event honors Dorothy Gillespie.

Ms. Gillespie passed in September, but she was a huge supporter of the arts both in the Roanoke and New River Valleys and internationally. Gerry McCarthy of Roanoke is going to present a documentary he made on the life and career of Gillespie.
