Laurie Beth Zuckerman has painted and donated a birdhouse for the Nests for Neighbors Silent Auction at THE TASTE, to be held at the University Hilton Inn in Fort Collins on April 14, 2011. Ten bird-houses have been created and donated by well-known local artists for this auction, many of them my good friends. My owb birdhouse, entitled "Aspen House" features hand-painted birds, a Downy Woodpecker and a White-breasted Nuthatch. The rusty tin roof was fabricated by my clever husband, Tom Mathies. This sturdy bird box is suitable for use outdoors or as a decorative art object for the patio or indoors.
Fort Collins' top chefs, restaurants, wineries, and breweries gather for THE TASTE, a major fundraising event for Food Bank for Larimer County and Neighbor to Neighbor. This annual fundraiser provides support to fight hunger and homelessness in the local community. All proceeds directly benefit the Food Bank for Larimer County and Neighbor to Neighbor, two of the area's largest non-profit organizations providing resources for the hungry and homeless.
General Admission Tickets for the event are $65.00 per person. VIP Admission Tickets are $95.00 per person. To purchase tickets, and to be able to view all the artworks up for bid in the Silent Art Auction, click on: www.tastebenefit.org
