Gala Art Auction March 1

Members of the Foxboro Art Association have been asked to donate their best works of art for a gala auction at the Foxboro Country Club to benefit the non-profit nursing home, the Doolittle Home, a century-old institution located across the street from the Boyden Library. A unique facility, the Doolittle Home is a 501(c)3 public charity and all donations are tax exempt (www.doolittle-home.org). The gala art auction will take place Saturday evening, March 1, beginning at 7 pm. The public can preview the donated art work because it will be hung at the Boyden Library during February. It promises to be a special evening for everyone involved and members are requested to donate one (or two) of their best pieces. For more info, e-mail Frank Quinn at fxquinn@yahoo.com.
