The Almond Country Quilt Guild will hold its 29th annual free Holiday Auction on Saturday, Nov. 3 to benefit two local nonprofits — Courtney’s House and Hospice of SLO County — as well as continuing education for local ACQG quilters.
The auction will take place at Trinity Lutheran Church, 940 Creston Rd. in Paso Robles. Doors open at 6 p.m. for a silent auction, viewing of the live auction quilts and finger food refreshments. The live auction starts at 7 p.m.
Through vocational and enrichment programs, Courtney’s House is dedicated to inclusion and opportunity for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, helping them with community-based job training, employment and social enrichment.
Hospice of San Luis Obispo County offers comfort and support to anyone coping with a life-limiting illness or the death of a loved one without charge.
If you are looking for a unique gift for the season, you can find it at the Holiday Auction and feel good knowing your purchase is also supporting local charities as 100 percent of your purchase goes toward Courtney’s House, Hospice, and ACQG education programs.
ACQG has more than 140 members who give back to the community, creating beautiful quilts for live auction and handmade items for the silent auction. The event offers an amazing variety of merchandise made by local artists and quilters. This year’s Holiday Auction will feature a quilt raffle, handmade quilts and wall hangings, and gift items.
