We are excited to announce the upcoming Fabrication Auction, to be held Friday, October 16th at 7:00 PM at the Wilkes Art Gallery.
Dozens of local artists have selected various items from the ReStore that are being used to create works of art that will be sold by silent auction with all proceeds benefitting Wilkes Habitat for Humanity and Wilkes Art Gallery educational programs. The artwork will first be displayed at the free viewing party Friday, September 25th from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, and will be on display during the gallery’s normal operating hours up until the night of the Fabrication Auction.
This is a wonderful opportunity to support the work of Habitat for Humanity while enjoying an evening of local artwork. Hors d’oeuvres & refreshments will be served. Tickets to the event are $25.00 a piece, and can be purchased at the Wilkes Habitat ReStore and the Wilkes Art Gallery.
To view a collection of images of the artists and the items they have selected, please visit our Photo Gallery.
Great progress has been made on our newest Habitat project. Block work will be completed this week and the house is now resting on it’s permanent foundation. We will be working at the job site for a couple of hours this Saturday putting the first coat of waterproofing on the basement wall.
Thanks to Habitat for Humanity International and the Charlotte ReStore for holding the first ReStore University. I learned a lot. Be sure to come by our Habitat ReStore, which is open to the public, to be a part of the excitement. We sale new and used items which have been donated. All proceeds support of Habitat’s efforts to eliminate poverty housing in Wilkes County, North Carolina.
Wilkes Habitat for Humanity is grateful to God to have broken ground our our 21st home. An article by the Wilkes Journal Patriot is available here.
