12.21.20 | Change for Change Auction and Volunteer Opportunity

What: Change for Change Show and Auction
Earlier this fall, 85 artists received defunct parking meters to transform into pieces of art as part of the city's Climate Protection Action Campaign. Come see the unveiling, show and auction of these one-of-a-kind pieces. WACH Fox will match the proceeds and use all funds to promote sustainability in the Midlands on air.

There are a few ways to show your support:
  1. Volunteer! We have four one-hour shifts available, and before/after you work your shift, you get to enjoy the event for FREE! One hours shifts at 5:30, 6:30, 7:30 with a final "break down" shift at 8:30 p.m. To volunteer, contact mpbaldauf@columbiasc.net!
  2. Attend the event. I know it's Christmas week, but if you're in town, what better way to celebrate and support sustainability?! The price is right - just $10 per person. Purchase tickets online at http://www.midlandsconnect.com/directory/changeforchange/.
  3. Get your company to commit to purchasing a meter! It's a piece of art + a conversation piece + a way to support sustainability in the Midlands OR one heck of a stocking stuffer! Just send someone that night with "the ability to purchase and pay."
If you have any questions, please contact the City's Sustainability Facilitator, Mary Pat Baldauf at mpbaldauf@columbiasc.net or 545-2722.

When: December 21, 2010, 5:30 to 8:30 p.m.

Where: 701 Whaley
