We have these amazing centerpieces for the four seasons left over from our Evening for the Arts fundraiser that need new homes! Our board member, Jim Perrigo, made these amazing trees from scratch and put so much time and effort into them - we would love to see them be used again!

We have 4 autumn trees, 4 winter trees, 4 spring trees, and 4 summer trees. All have fairy lights attached to them that really make them shine!

If another nonprofit can use them, please reach out to Megan at 620-221-2161 or email [email protected]. Or, if anyone would like to buy them, please send me an offer! We need to find new homes for them before summer classes start!
