Ring in the holidays with the Youth Auction Bell

||| FROM SAN JUAN ISLANDS MAKERS GUILD |||

Join us Friday evening at Odd Fellows for the Night Market with dinner by the Kitchen and drinks by The Barnacle. The bell rings at 5pm to launch the fun silent auction benefiting island youth programs. Amber Paulsen of Kaleidoscope is guiding the auction with winning bidders benefiting the Forest School, arts mentoring at the Funhouse, and the art & nature workshops at Orcas Wonder Camp.

The Winter Youth Program Auction is filled with over 70 great items – something for everyone. Bids start at $25 and above. Wonderful wreaths and beautiful jewelry. Wood cutting boards and hand carved bowls. Handwoven elegant shawl and cozy knit winter hats and gloves. Overnight stays at great hotels and vacation homes. Holiday beverages and foods. Art, paintings and sculpture. Even a year of fresh eggs! Preview opens at 4pm at Odd Fellows Hall.

The Night Market with over 30 vendors is open 4-8pm. Dinner is 5-8. Amber rings the auction start bell at 5 and the auction closes at 7:30. Winners will be announced on Saturday morning, with pick-ups on Sunday. The Winter Artisan Market runs Friday the 6th – Sunday the 8th.  Weekend hours are 10-4 on Saturday and 10-3 on Sunday.
