Attention Artists and Creators
We’re looking for creative community members to participate in our upcoming Chair-ity Auction! We will provide you with a piece of wooden furniture so you can transform it into a one-of-a-kind work of art! Paint it, stain it, decoupage it…the creative direction is entirely up to you. Contact Breeze Kidder at bkidder@pinetreesociety.org to claim your piece and start creating.
