Thanks again to everyone who made this thing happen!! It was so exciting/encouraging/inspiring to see so many gifted and generous people coming together to support this cause. We had over 100 people in attendance and raised just over $1300!! Check out the pics below, and keep visiting this site for updates about Luke’s trip. Also, I have already begun the process of getting the art to the highest bidders as well as returning the art to the artists, so if you are in either of these categories but haven’t heard from me, I’ll be in contact with you sometime this week. If you have any questions shoot me an email at alex.creswell@yahoo.com.

Tomorrow!!!
