Chairs for Charity returns to Calaveras County on Jan. 26, 2013.

 

Calling all artists!  Chairs for Charity is back.  Now is the time to put your creative thinking caps on and create the most unique chair, stool, bench, or artistic chair-like design that results in a "Work of Art".

 

This is a chance for local non-profit groups, schools, individuals or organizations to beef up their coffers with just a little creative effort.  Professional artists and community groups receive 40% of the auction price your item brings.  It is very important to note that 2013's total entries will be limited to 30.  So, time is of the essence.  Be the first to complete a chair and take home some bragging rights. 

 

Chairs for Charity returns to the San Andreas Town Hall on Saturday, January 26, 2013.  The fun starts at 5:00pm and runs to 8:00pm. The Town Hall has plenty of space for guests to sit and enjoy a delicious buffet dinner created by the Pickle Patch, enjoy a beverage from the no-host bar, visit with friends, participate in rounds of Xtreme Musical Chairs, select from the many valuable raffle prizes and, most importantly, bid on chairs and chair items in the live and silent auctions.

 

Two community non-profit groups are, again, joining forces to present Chairs for Charity 2013.  Calaveras Arts Council and Soroptimist International of Calaveras County will be collaborating to bring this fun-filled and must attend event to you.

 

Entry blanks showing specific deadlines for entries are now available at the Arts Council Gallery at 22 Main Street, San Andreas. Contact the Arts Council at 754-1774 or visit their website www.calaverasarts.org to learn more. END
