Art Opening Tonight at OPS Museum

Sundae Horn

Over 80 little works of art will be available in the slient auction fundraiser.

All are welcome to a wine-and-cheese (and more!) reception and art opening on Saturday, January 23rd, from 5 – 7pm at the Museum. What a great way to spend a blustery night!

The artwork will be available through a silent auction during the reception. Bidding begins at $10 a canvas. Amy and Karen are posting photos of the canvases on the OPS Facebook page. You can see a selection there and even place your bid online – until noon on Saturday! 

Last year, OPS received a wonderful collection of collages, paintings, and photographs to auction at the event, which raised over $5000 for the non-profit.

This year's show appears to be just as strong, with creative canvasses (and more!) by residents and visitors, young and old. 

Here are a couple of my newest favorites. (Amy expects to receive even more at the last minute!)
