EXHIBIT & AUCTION
Trees devastated by the Cal-Wood Fire have been transformed into 35 beautiful, hand-made benches by Cal-Wood Education Center staff. Local artists have turned these benches into spectacular, one-of-a-kind art pieces for a special Colorado Chautauqua Art In The Park exhibit.
The benches are currently on display throughout Chautauqua’s historic campus. Each bench is also part of a virtual auction to raise funds for the participating artists, Colorado Chautauqua’s wildfire prevention efforts, and Cal-Wood Education Center’s ongoing wildfire recovery campaign.
The exhibit and virtual auction will be live from September 10 through October 17, the first anniversary of the Cal-Wood fire. Access the online auction here.
For more information, or if you are interested in sponsoring a bench, contact Director of Development Debbie Stewart at Debbie.Stewart@chautauqua.com. Bench sponsorships are $500 (sponsorship form). Please feel free to pass this along to anyone you know who might be interested in supporting this wonderful community event.
