Greetings from the Pierpont Community Council.
You may be aware of the ongoing Public art project on Seaward Avenue. If not, you need to check out the colorful and detailed ceramic tile scenes on rehabilitated cement City trash receptacles at the end of Seaward Ave! They are truly works of art. Local artist Frank Bauer now begins Phase II of the project by rehabilitating cement City benches on the corner of Seaward Ave and Zephyr Court. Frank will use his unique style to create colorful scenes of the Pierpont neighborhood and Ventura.
100% of the Pierpont Art Project is funded by private donations, mainly from folks in the neighborhood. To help raise money for the new ceramic tile benches, and eventually the ceramic tile mural on the bathroom building wall, we are launching the first annual “Pierpont Beach Ball’, a social event and gathering to be held on Saturday September 14th from 5:00pm to 10:00pm. The event will be held in the condo complex at the end of Seaward Ave. The evening will consist of dinner, drinks, live and silent auction items, music and an opportunity to meet artist Frank Bauer.
The evening is organized to have 12 tables, with 10 people at each table. Each table will be their own “team” in a cocktail mixing competition between tables/”teams”. Each team is required to bring their unique libation to the competition to see who will be crowned the inaugural winner. Cocktail rules are forthcoming.
Here is where I need your help.
I would like you to sponsor a table at the Beach Ball event. Each table is $1,000, however you can spread the cost over 10 folks at your table so your net cost is only $100! Some table sponsors are paying the full amount for their group, others are sharing the cost.
Also, live and silent auction items are extremely important to the success of our event. They are our biggest money maker. I have included a list of items for your consideration. Take a moment and read the list, it might generate some ideas. Forwarding this list to friends and family might also generate auction items.
$1,000 checks for table sponsors should be made payable to the “Pierpont Bay Community Council”. A Pierpont Community Council committee member can assist with your registration. Email us at guitardan123@gmail.com.
We appreciate your help and look forward to a great event in raising money to continue to beautify our neighborhood.
Thanks,
Dan Roundtree
