‘Hats Off to BG’ silent auction raises funds for flowers

0

Every year Downtown Bowling Green and the Downtown Foundation plant over 600 flowering plants in the
downtown and the Art Walk Organizing Committee has hosted silent auction fundraisers to support the
plantings since 2012. The theme of this year’s auction is "Hats Off to BG."
Community members are invited to create a floral themed hat, that may be functional or purely for looks.
Any and every kind of hat is welcome, and no craft supply is off limits.
The registration fee is $10 and participants will receive a Styrofoam mannequin head, which may also be
decorated, to display their hat.
Registration forms may be downloaded online at downtownbgohio.org or picked up at Downtown Bowling Green,
Grounds for Thought and other venues around town. Registration forms, payment, and hats are due by April
16.
The silent auction portion of the event will take place at Grounds for Thought on April 26, a Saturday,
during the 22nd Annual Art Walk, presented by Downtown Bowling Green and the Bowling Green Arts Council.
Bids will be accepted throughout the day until 7:15 p.m. at Grounds for Thought.
Winners will be announced that evening at the After Art Walk Party.
All proceeds will benefit the Downtown Foundation’s Flower Fund.
