For the Auction on Saturday September 23, all are welcome to sign in and register for free, and the bidding, under the direction of local art personality Scott Marston Reid, will commence at 4:30 pm. Light refreshments will be available.

The proceeds from this Auction will fund college scholarships for one 2018 graduating senior from Pougheepsie High School and one graduating senior from Spackenkill high school, to further their intention of majoring in Art studies in college.

Thanks for your Support and Participation!

We raised $2,000 to be converted into scholarships, and we will be publishing more details in the process, leading to the awarding of these scholarships- one at Poughkeepsie High School graduation, and one at Spackenkill High School graduation.

THANK YOU ALL AGAIN for believing in our high school students, and keeping their interest in art and visual creativity continuing into their college futures!
