The West Valley High School Art Department is also creating art for the auction. Brian Ford, owner of Picture This Frame Shop and Gallery in Redding, donated 100 mats for the art. Alice Wilkinson, an active member of the Park Committee, is matting the art.
West Valley High and Anderson High Home Economics departments are donating baked goods to be sold at the auction. Food and drink donations have been received from local businesses.
