Water Street Studios continues to pARTner with leading organizations and artists in the area through the Activate the Alley project, a public art display honoring 10 local organizations through the work of local artists. On Thursday, March 19th the second art panel will be revealed featuring artwork by Kit Sunderland for Fox Valley Food for Health.
Fox Valley Food for Health’s mission is to promote a nutrition focused community through teen education and serving those struggling with a health crisis. For more information about Fox Valley Food for Health visit www.foxvalleyfoodforhealth.org.
“We are so excited to pARTner with Water Street Studios on this project. When the opportunity arose it was a no-brainer. It brings such a unique opportunity to spread awareness of not only Food for Health & Water Street, but the other organizations involved. I truly believe that this project will be a beautiful representation of how Fox Valley nonprofits are committed to collaborating together, and highlighting each other’s strengths, for the betterment of our community.”
Kit Sunderland, a Chicago-based artist dedicated to expressing the duality of life through her work, was selected by Fox Valley Food for Health for her colorful, realistic yet whimsical style that ties perfectly with Food for Health’s dual mission.

I am so thankful that a few of my fellow Batavian’s recommended the Batavia Chamber of Commerce to me. Since I joined I feel as though I have been blessed with a second family with all the support and motivation I get from them on a regular basis. Margaret, Patti and Shirley are the most amazing women. They have great passion for business and helping people. I truly feel they care about my business on a personal level and want to see it grow and succeed as much as I do! They have gone the extra mile to get my name and my business name out there and introduce me to the business community. The Chamber has so many opportunities available that have helped my business both grow and problem solve such as the free monthly Networking It events. I highly recommend the Batavia Chamber of Commerce to all business professionals.
