Northern Berkshire Center for the Arts Plans Fifth Anniversary Birthday Fundraiser
02:25PM / Monday, June 22, 2009
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. - “Have Your Cake and Eat it, Too” at NBCA’s fifth anniversary fundraiser on Monday evening, July 13th, at Mezze Bistro + Bar and theBrowns in Williamstown. In keeping with the birthday theme, 50 artists have created Objets {Cake} d’Art, 10-inch non-edible sculpted layer cakes that will be auctioned during the party.
From Frank Jackson’s signature “cake-on-wheels” to Kevin Leonard’s spider-eating wonder, the artists have gone over the top with their donated works. The cakes will be showcased for two weeks before the event at The Milne Library, selected storefronts on Spring Street, and theBrowns in Williamstown, and at Hudson’s in North Adams.
The festivities begin at 5:30 pm with a buffet dinner, wine and cash bar at Mezze Bistro + Bar. At 7PM, the activity moves into theBrowns next door, where guests can indulge in designer cupcakes while finalizing their bids on the cake sculptures displayed throughout the store. Winners will be announced at 8PM.
Northern Berkshire Center for the Arts, a non-profit community arts school founded in 2003, provides a broad range of studio classes and creative arts programming, both traditional and contemporary. Open to all members of the Northern Berkshires and surrounding communities, NBCA encourages and nurtures the active participation in the arts for all individuals. For more information about NBCA, visit www.nbcarts.org.
Tickets for the buffet dinner are $50.00 per person and may be purchased through NBCA at 413.663.8338. RSVP deadline is July 6th.
The dessert and silent auction portion of the evening are free and everyone is welcome.
