FRESH PAINT SILENT AUCTION FOR RUCH SCHOOL
What's the first thing that gets cut when schools face a budget squeeze?
[Please note: our Fresh Paint Reception on July 14th will not include a silent auction and will not require a ticket - all paintings with be included in a 3-day lavender festival anonymous auction]
Party in the Art Barn for Ruch School kids!
We invite you to support Ruch Outdoor Community School by purchasing a $25 ticket (either Friday, June 23rd 7pm to 9pm and/or Friday July 14th, 7pm to 9pm to join us in the Applegate River Lavender barn for a fun-filled evening of food, wine, music and art. The barn will be filled with paintings created by regional artists who painted all over the Applegate Valley during a one-day plein-air quick paint earlier in the day. You read that correctly -- all the paintings will be less than 8 hours old.
There will also be a few select works created by Ruch School students included in the auction. All of the pieces will be available for you to bid on (via anonymous silent auction) while you meet the artists, nibble on tasty appetizers and sip local wine.
The net proceeds of the auction and ticket sales will be donated to fund 2023-2024 art programs at Ruch School. Your participation in this event will help the school maintain vibrant creative experiences for their students.
