Jennifer Pickering, the dynamo behind LEAF Global Arts, and Lake Eden Retreat has been nominated as a Hurricane Hero for her incredible work supporting the arts community during the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. Her creation of the LEAF Local Artists Relief Fund provided financial aid to local artists impacted by the storm, allowing them to recover and continue their creative practices.
Beyond financial relief, the efforts of Jennifer and her team have been a lifeline for many in the artistic community, helping to facilitate healing through creative expression. LEAF Global Arts has been instrumental in rebuilding the spirit of our region, offering a space for recovery and connection in the wake of Helene’s devastation.
We are so grateful for the unwavering commitment to supporting artists and the tireless work the LEAF team has done to heal and uplift our community. Jennifer’s impact is truly inspiring, and we’re proud to celebrate her as part of Appalachian Phoenix.
