The Whistler House to Celebrate the Holidays with Art Auction & Party
In what is their biggest fundraising event of the year, the Whistler House Museum of Art will host their annual Whistler Holiday Party on Friday, December 4 starting at 6:30 p.m. The festivities will be held at the historic house on 243 Worthen Street in Lowell.
“Each year, the holiday party is a fun-filled fundraising event, and we’re grateful to our sponsors, artists, and to the many volunteers who make this event a success,” said Sara Bogosian, president of the Whistler House Museum of Art. “This is one of our most anticipated events of the year, featuring a live art auction, silent auction, open bar, gourmet dinner and live entertainment.”
The live art auction will be led by auctioneer State Representative Tom Golden, and will feature beautiful original works of art from area artists. The evening will also include a raffle for a Tom Gill painting and the return of the ever popular Trinity Triple Treat Raffle, for which club seat tickets to Bruins, Red Sox and Celtics games will be given away. Silent auction items include artwork, designer handbags, jewelry, children toys, wine vineyard tours, overnight bed & breakfast, and horseback riding lessons. Live music will be provided by pianist Roger Hatch.
The event will be hosted by the Whistler House Musuem of Art staff and committee members Bob Roach, Terry O’Connor, Frank Makarewicz, Jack Moynihan, and Veronika Demers.
Ticket prices are $95 for non-members and $85 for members. Proceeds from the event will help fund childrens’ art programs and continued restoration of the historic house. Everyone is welcome. For more information call 978-452-7641 or email lstewart@whistlerhouse.org.
