be in attendance, and we will be serving wine by Vizcaya Winery. The exhibition is free, open
to the public, and runs through December 28th.

About the Ornament Auction
Local artists will create art objects that function as ornaments that we will sell in a silent
auction during December’s First Thursday. The silent auction will run from 5-8 pm. Proceeds
of the ornament sales will benefit Camp Rainbow Gold, our non-profit partner this year.
