Join us for the 11th Annual Art + Advocacy Auction 05.09.24
Our team at Safe & Sound CAC truly believes that the prevention of child abuse and neglect starts with providing education, training, and support to our community and their families. Our staff work closely with partner agencies to connect families with the resources that they need during a time of uncertainty. We offer a variety of programs and services that address both prevention and intervention. The more people know, the better equipped they are to protect their children and advocate for others. We give a voice to those that need it most.
The 11th Annual Art + Advocacy Auction is coming up on Thursday, May 9th, 2024! Join us from 5:30-9pm at Creative 360 for food, fun, and auctions, all to support the work we do here at Safe & Sound!
Funds raised support our Intervention and Prevention services to ensure that everyone gets the help that they need. Attendees can expect great food from Menu Manager, entertainment from Electric Kitch, a live auction, and a raffle, including art from local artists. Tickets can be purchased online. Another highlight for this event is we will have artists at the event painting a one-of-a-kind Art piece that will be part of our live auction. There will also be a live auction with Jason Marsh from J Marsh Auction House – this alone is worth the price of admission.
