Nearly
60 ladies and a few gentlemen gathered last Friday
night at the Zion Lutheran School in Mount Pulaski
to take part in a school fundraising event called
Paint Nite. Participants paid $45 each to paint a
picture, enjoy food and beverages and socialize at
the event that raised money for school activities.
Pictured here is Debby Aylesworth (far right)
checking out the work of Heather Murphy. Meanwhile
Erin Martin concentrates on her painting and Chrissy
Fitzpatrick (far left) seems to be in deep thought
about her colors. Last but not least, J’Ne Kanady
(center) is nearly finished with her masterpiece.
