Chocolate
Fantasy & Art Auction is coming soon, so mark your calendar
for Saturday evening, February 28, 2004 from 7:00 - 10:30
p.m. Set in the Grand Ballroom of the CH2M Alumni Center,
this annual fundraising event is known as the most elegant
evening in the region. Sample scrumptious chocolate desserts
created by our region's finest chefs, chat with friends, enjoy
live music, and bid on original artwork - all for the cause
of keeping the arts at the center of our community!
The
table themes for 2004 are: The Art of Dining, The Art of the
Getaway, The Art of Adventure, The Art of the Eclectic, The
Art of Nature, and The Art of Chocolate. Six artists have
been asked to create a unique art "centerpiece"
to match the theme of each table. If you would like a sneak
preview of these artworks, come to ArtCentrics' Readers Theatre
production, "Love and Chocolate," on Sunday, February
8, 2004 at 7:00 p.m. That night ONLY we will offer Chocolate
Fantasy & Art Auction tickets for $5 off the regular price
(members $35; non-members $40). PLUS, you will see a wonderful
show to set the mood for Valentine's Day and have a sneak
preview of the six artworks!
