“In celebration of our 35th anniversary of the arts in our community, we raised $28,000 for arts programs and arts partners. I want to think everybody who attended, who contributed to the arts in our community. I also want to share with you our Spirit of Grace Patron of the Arts award was presented to Stacia Mattan. We have added each year a raffle to our fundraising and those three grand prize winners were Rod Davies, Vicky Howard, and John Baker. I also want to say thank you to the Patton Block Grill and Brew Pub, M & E Catering, and DJ Vital Beats for making our gala an event to remember.”
