A silent auction of photos, drawings and paintings created during Grafton Lakes State Park’s Art in the Park program will be held at the Park’s Winter Festival on Saturday, February 6. The auction and exhibit, sponsored by the Friends of Grafton Lakes State Park, will be held in the maintenance shop from 11 am to 3 pm.
The Park’s forests, wildlife and lakes made for spectacular autumn scenery and an ample supply of inspiration for several community participants, ranging from high school photography students to professional artists. Contributors created over twenty works, from which half of the auction’s proceeds will benefit the Friends of Grafton Lakes State Park.
Bidding will run from 11 am to 3 pm, when the Friends of Grafton Lakes State Park will determine the winning bids. Each piece is framed or matted, ready to adorn the purchaser’s home.
The mission of the Friends of Grafton Lakes State Park is to support and promote the environmental education programs and other activities at the Park.
