“Dream - Nessun Dorma” (2008) by Luisa Cohrs

“Dream — Nessun Dorma” (2008) by Luisa Cohrs. The triptych is on view and sale at the Huntington Beach Art Center.

So I went down to the Huntington Beach Art Center Friday for the opening of its annual Artini Time benefit. It was a fun time, and well attended.

I believe a majority of the $33.33/$66.66/$99.99 small pieces sold.

I bid on a couple of pieces by Courtney Oquist and Finishing School, but I was quickly outbid.

The silent auction continues through Friday, May 16. A big auction party is scheduled for 7-9 p.m. Friday, with a live auction starting at 8 p.m. Admission is $50, $45 if you’re a member.

If memory serves me correctly, Dr. Carl Hartman will be auctioneer, and Elise Hartman will be chairwoman.

The event will be catered, and wine and non-alcoholic beverages will be served.

 The art center is at 538 Main St., Huntington Beach. Perhaps I’ll see you there!
