Holiday Greetings to all Artist, Artisans, and Crafters in the Mountain Empire Area:
The Mountain Empire Creative Arts Council (MECAC) is producing a Christmas play called "A Journey Through Christmas" on December 13, 2008. IN conjunction with the show, we are challenging all artists, artisans, and crafters to create a Christmas Ornament for a silent auction to benefit MECAC, a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization to help underwrite art projects for the Mountain Empire community such as this holiday program.
Before the show and during intermission, theatregoers can bid (in a silent auction) on the artwork. Ornaments will be hung on a Christmas tree, and all other non-ornament items such as jewelry, paintings, carvings, poems, etc., will be displayed on tables for viewing. Following the show, auction winners will be awarded.
We welcome and encourage all artists and craft people to participate. This is a wonderful opportunity to show off your best work in making an "Object de Arte." Let your creative juices flow!
In addition, we will have space on several tables for you to display, advertise, and make connections with those who are interested in your work. However, due to legal constraints, no private sales are allowed during this evening.
If you wish to participate, please contact Marshall Chapman, Treasurer of MECAC, at (619) 473-9720 by December 1 so MECAC can plan the auction accordingly. You may also leave a comment here on the blog, and it will get to Marshall.
Thank you in advance for contributing to the continuation of arts in our backcountry. We have many plans in the works that will engage both children and adults in the arts, and your participation will help us greatly in these endeavors.
