ART AUCTION POSTPONED
The Silent Auction featuring donated pieces by local artists will be postponed until Saturday, March 12th, due to rising numbers locally and a general sense of uncomfortableness. We want to present the silent auction at a time when people are more at ease with being together. We are still accepting donations if you or anyone you know would like to provide art- all mediums are welcome!
