Fundraiser held for local ceramics program

Supporters of the ceramics program offered at the Community Center of La Cañada Flintridge gathered in the beautiful Meadow Grove area garden of Richard and Sandra Goodspeed on a recent Sunday evening to raise funds for the program through a silent auction.

According to Marguerite Duncan-Abrams, chairman of Foothills Ceramics Support Guild, approximately $3,000 was raised at the event, which featured wine, hors d’oeuvres and the music of Misplaced Priorities, a band led by Tom Reynolds, president of the Community Center Board of Directors.

The Foothill Ceramics Support Guild was formed this year to raise awareness of the contributions that the local community center’s ceramics program makes to the area and to help the center raise funds to purchase needed equipment.
