Celebrate a Father's Legacy
Art's Table to Host Labor Day Weekend Fundraiser September 2-5 for SMC's Study Abroad
Location: Art’s Table 1002 Montana Ave Santa Monica, CA 90403
The entire weekend of September 2-5, Art's Table is honoring the legacy of its namesake,
Dr. Art Verge, respected waterman and longtime Santa Monica educator and city historian.
The popular New American restaurant will donate 100% of the proceeds from its Labor
Day specials to the Art Verge Study Abroad Scholarship Fund at Santa Monica College
Foundation.
Additionally, the proprietors will fortify the Art Verge Study Abroad Scholarship
Fund annually with a special event every Father's Day weekend and Labor Day weekend,
and contribute 20% of the value of each gift card purchased yearlong.
Dr. Verge, inspired by his love of travel, people and cultures, was instrumental in
creating and enlivening the immensely successful International Study and Study Abroad
programs at Santa Monica College. He worked to ensure the opportunity to experience
the world was open to all students by helping remove obstacles for financially challenged
and at risk students.
