The Third Annual ‘Artful Night Under the Stars’ Art Auction and Gala returns to V Seagrove on February 22nd, from 6 to 9 PM.

While sipping wine on 30A with a view of the gulf is always fabulous, this posh fundraiser has a real star — the 60-piece art auction that features local and regional masterpieces. This year, all proceeds from the event will benefit early childhood education efforts at The Tree House Episcopal Montessori School.

“This event truly showcases local artists and allows for partiers to buy a fabulous piece of art… or two, or three,” said Genevieve Torrey, Artful Night Under the Stars Chairman and parent of two daughters who attend The Tree House Episcopal Montessori School. “Last year we had lots of out-of-towners come especially for this art auction and left with full trunks.”

For the second year in a row, Grayton Beer Company will have brews on-tap, including The Original and the new 30A Beach Blonde. V Seagrove will provide heavy appetizers, desserts and a raw bar for seafood lovers. Grove Fisher of Fisher Flower and Events will spearhead the event designs, including stunning table arrangements and flowers. Sunshine Shuttle and Limousine will provide door-to-door complimentary valet parking at V Seagrove, while Daniel W. Uhlfelder Law Firm donated the funds to bring the popular local band The Courtyard Saints to provide jams during the festivities.

ENTER TO WIN this $1500 “Blue Flowers in Vase” original glass artwork by South Walton Artist of the Year MARY HONG + 2 Tickets to Artful Night Under the Stars!

In addition to the local art pieces, auction items include restaurant and shop gift certificates, fine wines, home décor, massage/spa packages, photography sessions, legal services, medical services, jewelry, unique dining experiences, and fabulous vacation homes in fun and exotic locales.
