On Saturday, December 7, we welcomed more than 300 guests to our âArt
From the Heartâ Art Auction at historical Elderfields Preserve. The festive hol-
iday party included delicious food, passed hors dâoeuvres and desserts, music
and a live auction of beautiful artwork.
Guests were greeted by twinkling holiday lights and live music as they
approached a transformed Art Guild and galleries. More than 150 donated one-
of-a-kind works of art lined the walls and were available for auction, with some
going for as much as $500. Remaining works are available for just $100.
âThanks to the generosity of the community and local businesses that
support the arts, Art from the Heart was free to attend and enjoy.â said Lisa
