Sorry this entry is posted late, I meant to have it up a few days ago but the past week was incredibly busy with other assignments. Regardless, on Tuesday, I helped set up for a big fundraiser ACA has every year called \u201cHorsin\u2019 Around.\u201d The fundraiser takes place at main campus and involves both silent and live auctioning of experiences and artwork. I specifically helped set up a bunch of jewelry and wearable art on a table using stands and place cards. I had to clean off the stands before we could use them which took awhile, but everything looked great at the end. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The event itself took place on Sunday so I showed up then to help as well. When I got there, I was immediately put to work helping people park. They have a lot of parking, but there were SO many people at the fundraiser that all the lots filled up and people ended up having to park on the street. I got a chance to check out some of the other work that was being auctioned and there were some really amazing pieces. My favorite was a picture of a lighthouse in the night, but the whole landscape was a very beautiful purple and it was placed in a gold frame that really brought out the colors. After we took a break, I helped Bethany some more by clearing glasses off of tables and cleaning up around the area. We also got a chance to hear some of the auction process, which was impressive. The people who come to the fundraiser are very willing to give a lot of money to the organization (especially when they\u2019ve had a few drinks). I know Bethany is relieved to have another major event done, but now we are looking ahead to the arts and wellness academy coming up! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
