Auction for the Arts -- March 26th, 2010

The East Gloucester PTO is holding an Auction for the Arts.  The money raised will go to support the arts at East Gloucester Elementary, and to help build a dedicated art room in the school.

The event will be held on Friday, March 26th a Cruiseport in Gloucester, from 7:00p to 10:30p.  Appetizers from Duckworth Beach Gourmet will be served, and there will also be a cash bar and dance music by Wheelhouse.  Bidding on silent auction items commences immediately, with a live auction scheduled for 8:00p.  Tickets are $20, and are available at the door.  

Why an Auction for the Arts?  Because:
  • The arts are important!
  • The school's art budget is less than $3 per student per year!
  • The school does not have a dedicated art room; our teacher (Mr. Ed Touchette) now brings "art on a cart" to each classroom.
Our community has donated many wonderful items for this auction; see the blog posts for details.  If you have an item to donate, please contact us at eastgloucester@gmail.com.

Please come and support the arts!
