Rain dampened the streets of Spruce Pine Sunday, August 15, but not the spirits of the people inside the doors of the Arts Council Gallery. Thank you to the many artists and volunteers who donated beautiful items that helped TRAC to raise $25,500 for its 33rd Annual Art Auction. A special thanks to Carolyn Munro Wilson who sponsored the food for the auction - to Kay Goins, auction chair and the TRAC Board of Directors for their support, to Nancy Roth and her crew who coordinated preparing all the food, to Jane Willig and her crew for the Auction operations, Kathryn Andree and her crew for the auction set-up and more, to Matt Willig and his crew for the packing of all the items, to Tom Little for managing the Silent Auction area, and to our auctioneer David Little. We couldn't have done it without you!!! And to those of you who came out and bought items and supported TRAC in its fundraising effort. Thank you.
