A Vision for Art 2025: A Resounding Success on Episcopal’s St. Mark’s Campus

The sixth-annual A Vision for Art fundraising event presented by Northern Trust, held from March 21-24 on Episcopal’s St. Mark’s Campus, was a spectacular success, drawing art enthusiasts, collectors, and community supporters together for a weekend of creativity and philanthropy.

The event showcased an impressive array of artwork, with approximately 200 original pieces sold, reflecting the growing enthusiasm for this beloved event. Featured Artist Mark Carson English captivated attendees with his stunning pieces, and his live painting session added an extra layer of excitement to the Opening Night. In a generous show of support for arts education, all proceeds from Mark Carson English’s sales directly benefited the North Florida School for Special Education Art Department and Episcopal School of Jacksonville.

The Opening Night Celebration offered guests a sophisticated evening of delicious cuisine by Chef’s Garden Events, an open bar, and an atmosphere filled with good vibes. Throughout the weekend, public shopping days welcomed art enthusiasts of all backgrounds, creating a vibrant and inclusive community celebration of the arts. Additionally, Episcopal’s AP Draw, Paint, Print, and Photography students had the unique opportunity to showcase and sell their artwork. A memorable reception on Monday evening honored these talented young artists, further solidifying the event’s mission of fostering artistic growth and recognition.

With its outstanding turnout and remarkable support from the community, A Vision for Art 2025 continues to solidify its reputation as a premier event celebrating creativity, generosity, and the transformative power of art.
