Fine Art Flamingo Fundraiser: Parade and Silent Auction

Saturday, September 17, 2011

The new “OLD FLAMINGO” Store sponsors a parade and silent auction to benefit the flamingo flock at Tracy Aviary – 29 September 2011 – 4-8pm, 3474 South 2300 East, Salt Lake City.

As part of a “Grand OPENING” The Old Flamingo is sponsoring a Flocking Flamingo Parade and a silent auction to benefit the care and feeding of the flamingos at Tracy Aviary and honor the memory of “Pink Floyd.” Items up for auction are pink yard flamingos that have been transformed and embellished by local artists.

These are NOT your grandma’s pink flamingos! These flamingos have been elevated to fancy fine art!

Participating artists specialize in fine art painting, mixed media, glass works, ceramics and pottery as well as crochet. Artists include Amber DeBirk, Corey Flanders, Greg White, David Estes, Patricia Street, Kerry Collett, Cassidy DuHadway, Toni Wilcox, Michale Dobson and others.

The Flocking Flamingo Parade begins at 6:30 sharp. Parade will start and end at The Old Flamingo store and travel around the Millcreek Grower’s Market on its final day. Children are encouraged to participate and can sign up at the store. The silent auction will begin at 4:00pm and end at 7:30pm. The Old Flamingo store will donate the proceeds of the auction and a portion of the evening’s sales to Tracy Aviary’s flamingo flock.

Located on the East Bench of the Salt Lake Valley, The Old Flamingo is a new shopping experience for anyone looking for unique and interesting one-of-a-kind furniture and home furnishings. This is not a consignment store, it is a co-op of local artisans who have joined together to create an innovative environment for creating beautiful products for your home. Each artisan brings their own style and imagination to all of their pieces making them original and usable works of art.

This EVENT is AT THE OLD FLAMINGO STORE Thurs. 29 SEPTEMBER 2011 – 4pm-8pm
