The Sisters community is invited to an inspiring afternoon filled with creativity and community on Friday, July 11, at the annual Black Butte Art Guild fundraiser, Art at the Ranch.
The event is held in support of the Sisters High School Arts department, including providing college scholarships for students pursuing art degrees. Auction items were donated by local Sisters shops and restaurants. There will be unique experiences, high-quality goods, and extraordinary artwork. Light appetizers and a no-host bar will be available. There will be an informative and interactive display by the Firewise Art and Wildfire committee, a nonprofit dedicated to education and risk reduction for wildfires.
Local artists will be selling their work, and just outside the Black Butte Ranch Lodge, Plein Air painters will be capturing the beauty of the day on the lawn by the lake.
