Artcetera, the Elora Centre for the Arts’ annual fundraiser, has raised close to $40,000.
“I’m very happy with the total,” said general manager Arlene Saunders. “Other auctions in the area were down this year, but we were up [by about $5,000].”
The event offered close to 300 pieces of art, including over 40 in a live auction, with artists getting a portion of the proceeds. The remainder of the profits will go to the centre.
Saunders said officials are very appreciative of the help from all artists, buyers, donors and sponsors involved with Artcetera – all of whom helped make the event a success.
