| Chaparral High art students paint one Alamos chair. |
Celebrating 40 years as Scottsdale's first Sister City, Alamos, Mexico shares its great tradition as an art community with Scottsdale through its special chair project. Fifteen hand-crafted chairs were brought to Scottsdale for local artists to paint and decorate, then auctioned off to benefit the Alamos student exchange program. Last night (sorry, a day late) over a hundred people attended the silent auction and reception at the Legacy Gallery on Main Street where nine of the fifteen chairs were sold. Six chairs remain for a future event. For more information, contact Kathy George at kathygeorge9@gmail.com or on the SSCA website: Scottsdale Sister Cities or "like" SSCA on Facebook: SSCA Facebook Also see my blog of Sept. 27 about our newest sister city, Marrakech, Morocco which will host the first Scottsdale student delegation in March.
