Exquisite works of art by celebrated local artists will be on the auction block to support local organizations and their conservation efforts along the French Broad River.
Artwork is in a variety of mediums, depicting scenes along the French Broad River from the original 1870s publication, “Picturesque America”. This auction is PAPA’s major fundraiser. Proceeds will not only support PAPA with its ongoing mission but will also contribute to the conservation efforts of such organizations as Riverlink, Asheville Greenworks, Mountain True, The Appalachian Trail Conservancy, the Pisgah Conservancy, Chimney Rock State Park, and the Carolina Mountain Club.
This is a unique opportunity to purchase some wonderful art and contribute to the protection of natural landmarks in the beautiful mountains we call home!
