Never Gone~Memorial Post~Amanda

NEVER GONE

BOFA was founded in loving memory of artist, writer, poet, and musician,
Amanda Nicole Curcio. 
Established to promote creative unity in the Belfast, NY area; our small team has been active since 2009. 




Also in her memory, SWAN Days Allegany County, NY grew out of a desire to celebrate local female creators and provide resources for all creators to incorporate the arts in our daily lives. 

Working with the Belfast Public Library and the Belfast Town Hall, our kind and dedicated events coordinator, Kathryn Garrison; continues to maintain BOFA's activities for artists in the Belfast community.
