‘Fabulous’ event
Dear Editor:
It really does take a village, or a township! The Ignite! Art Auction at the Elora Centre for the Arts was a huge success, giving the capital campaign another boost.
The March 22 evening finale was sold out and guests enjoyed fabulous food donated by local chefs and bakers from Fergus and Elora. A huge thanks to them for their support of the arts and its important role in the wellness of our community; so great to see the visual arts and the culinary arts come together.
From all of us at the arts centre, staff, board and volunteers, we want to give a huge shout out to Resa Lent (chef and food coordinator supreme), The Breadalbane Inn, Community Café, Elora Bread Trading Company, The Evelyne, The Friendly Society, Handsome Devil, The Mill, Taj Mahal, Teeny Tiny Bakery, Underground Kitchen and the Wild Tart & Tartlet Patisserie.
We also gratefully acknowledge the ongoing support of lead sponsors, Xanadu Homes, the Wellington Advertiser, Wightman and our new sponsor, Sleeman-Sapporo. What an amazing and generous community we have!
Sheila Koop, volunteer chair, ECFTA Capital Campaign
