Fayetteville, NC – On Thursday, September 21, 2023, the distinguished Cape Fear Botanical Garden will host the 10th Annual KidsPeace Auction at 5:30 PM. The annual event, located at 536 N Eastern Blvd, Fayetteville, NC, signifies a gathering of purpose, fostering hope, help, and healing through a unique blend of art and altruism.
A Symphony of Restored Art
The event, presented by Re-Store Warehouse, stands out as it features local artists transforming battered items such as tables, chairs, and windows into exquisite pieces of art. Esteemed photographer Raul Rubiera lends his expertise to capture the essence of each transformed piece. These revitalized items will grace various events and businesses around Fayetteville, drawing attention and raising awareness before being auctioned off.
This year, the event embraces a more formal art theme, accentuating the transformative journey of each piece. Both silent and live auctions will be held, with Bill McMillan orchestrating the latter as the live auctioneer, contributing to the lively atmosphere of the evening. Attendees can also indulge in a range of culinary delights, including heavy appetizers and delicious sweets, complemented by a selection of beer, wine, and spirits.
A Decade of Hope and Healing
Celebrating its 10th year, the event underscores its ongoing commitment to the local KidsPeace Foster Care Children’s Fund. The fund epitomizes hope, extending help and healing to children, adults, and their families. The auction serves as a beacon of support, channeling the proceeds to fuel initiatives aligned with the mission of KidsPeace Fayetteville.
Beyond Aesthetics: A Tale of Renewal
One might ponder the connection between everyday items like chairs and tables and the lofty mission of KidsPeace. Much like the foster children who arrive torn, tattered, and bruised, these items reach the artists battered and broken. The meticulous restoration process symbolizes the nurturing embrace of foster families, breathing new life into both the children and the items. The rejuvenated pieces not only raise awareness but also represent new beginnings, echoing the resilience and potential within every child.
A Call to Participate
This event is not just an auction; it’s a convergence of compassion and creativity, celebrating the transformative power of care and attention. Attendees will witness the metamorphosis of once-forgotten items into meaningful pieces of art, reflecting the transformative journey of the children under the aegis of KidsPeace.
For those interested in being part of this memorable evening filled with hope and artistic splendor, tickets are available at $75 per person, and further details can be explored at KidsPeaceFayettevilleAuction.com/AnnualAuction. This is a unique opportunity to witness the transformative power of love and care and to contribute to a cause that reshapes futures and rekindles hope.
