Arts Under The Stars!

Enjoying an Evening of Twilight at the Walnut Grove!
This past Thursday, I had the honor and privilege of volunteering for Arts Under the Stars, an annual fundraiser benefiting the Moorpark Foundation for the Arts! I kicked off the event by singing the National Anthem and then helped draw the raffle ticket winners and manage the live auction with fellow local titleholder Elizabeth Sutton (Miss Teen Twin Counties). The evening consisted of a lovely dinner, terrific entertainment provided by performers of the High Street Arts Center and the Ballet Folklorico Mestizo of Oxnard College; a silent auction with tons of amazing prizes, a raffle with more amazing prizes, and a live auction featuring prizes such as a name engraving on a seat at the High Street Arts Center, a beautiful painting of Babe Ruth commissioned by Julia Ruth herself, and Ellen DeGeneres tickets!
Overall, the event raised well over $3,000 in the live auction alone! I felt so blessed to be a part of such a wonderful fundraiser and part of such an incredible program that supports the local arts in Moorpark!! =)
