If art isn’t your thing, Anthes noted that there are other ways to help the center at the event, including their “fund in need” packages. “We will offer an opportunity to bid on a dental visit for a patient who can’t afford it or a mammogram for someone who doesn’t have insurance or a bus pass for someone to get to their appointment,” she said. As an auctioneer announces the opportunity to buy these, participants can lift their paddles to buy one, or even several if they choose. “It’s a wonderful evening of refreshments and art and time with other folks in the community,” said Foley. “You’ll find hidden treasures you didn’t even know you wanted or needed, but also it’s a way to give back. Its way to take an evening to come and explore and learn about center in case you’ve never heard about it or visited, to see the folks who make it happen every year and hear the mission of a wonderful organization that truly benefits from the proceeds that come from this event. There [are] a lot of fundraisers – this one is an easy one to attend, it’s affordable and I think it’s surprising.” “Art in the City” takes place from 6 p.m.-9 p.m. Tickets can be purchased individually for $40 or as part of a sponsorship package.
