Mark your calendar now and save Saturday, Oct. 23, for the second annual art auction and dinner to benefit the Bluffton Center for Entrepreneurs (BCE).
The evening will begin with an hour to preview the auction and enjoy drinks from a cash bar, include an elegant dinner, and culminate with the auction featuring work from local artists.
This year, BCE organizers are hosting a juried show of some 30 pieces of art. They are also seeking donors to match the gavel price of one or more items, as an added incentive to bidders.
