"There's No Place Like Home" auction and celebration is a fundraiser in which various local artists donate their time and talents to paint Adirondack chairs following the theme "There's No Place Like Home". This auction pairs the strengths of the local art community with the generosity of businesses and individuals. There are over 30 beautifully decorated functional art pieces that will be featured on the Bidding for Good website for viewing and bidding.
This an "Online to Live Silent Auction" meaning that once an item is available online, individuals may start bidding. Online bidding will be allowed until 8am on April 13th. The event will culminate in a Live Silent Auction and Celebration on Saturday, April 17th at 6:30pm at the Midland Curling Center. Bids will start at the Live Silent Auction where they left off online. If you cannot join us at the event, there is the option for absentee bidding online.
Chippewa Nature Center's entry is by Naturalist Karen Breternitz. Here's a description of her chair: "When you ask a group of naturalists to design a chair around 'There's No Place like Home" you get a chair full of plant and animal homes of course! Humans are not unique in our need for a good home–it's a need we share with all living species. Together we can work to provide quality, affordable housing for our human and other animal friends. This chair is just a sampling of the various homes that you might find around mid-Michigan, from a naturalist's perspective that is!"
Thanks for your support of Chippewa Nature Center and this worthy cause in our community! Now just click to visit and start bidding!
