A large and colorful mural, created by the Central Oregon Artists for Hope in cooperation with Madras High School Art Students and other community artists, will be unveiled at the Madras Aquatic Center (MAC) this Spring. The students and community artists hand painted approximately 100 fish, each of them unique and colorful.
In celebration of the mural and to help sustain the MAC and its programs, as well as to support the CASA Volunteer Organization, we are soliciting sponsorships for each of the hand painted fish. Each donor will be entered into a raffle for a chance to win $500. Tickets sales begin Saturday, March 17th at the Madras Aquatic Center. The minimum donation is $35 and you will receive a replica of one of the hand painted fish that are in the mural as well as an entry into the raffle for a chance to win $500.
Central Oregon Artists for Hope is a non-funded group of local artists who work collaboratively on art projects to benefit the community. Sharon Miller from the Studio on 5th Street and co-chairman of this group stated that "It's so great to see our community artists come together for these two important causes. It's wonderful to live in a community where everyone pitches in to promote health and well-being for the kids"
