Give something creative this Holiday Season! Visit Center for the Arts “Arts Auction for Arts Education” Online Auction, starting midnight on November 15 through November 30 at 32auctions.com/cfanh. With over 75 items to choose from, this is a great way to shop local for the holidays while helping CFA raise money for art education in our region. Bid on original art and photography by local artists or music lessons, wine tasting, theater tickets, manuscript consulting, baking Stolen and much more.

Help us support teacher’s efforts to bring the arts to more students, like the Shakespeare Project, Poetry Club, and funding schoolwide arts programs which enhance the existing arts curriculums, like last year’s Woodwind and Jazz concerts. This year virtual programming will also be supported, as well as opportunities for students to participate in community-wide projects, like the online Teen Writers Project and online Arts Exhibits.

Back by popular demand is the wonderful 2nd Annual 10” x 10” Art Sale. Local artists were asked to create and donate a 10” x 10” work of art that will be offered for sale for $100. Each piece is a uniquely different, original one-of-a-kind creation with 100% of the proceeds going to Arts Education.
