The Santa Maria Arts Council is preparing its second annual Birdhouse Fundraiser event for the Autumn Arts Grapes and Grains festival and needs artists to paint donated birdhouses for a fundraiser raffle. Local artists are needed to beautify birdhouses in unique and artistic styles.
The Arts Council will be evaluating artists to whom to distribute the limited birdhouses. Select artists will receive their birdhouses on Aug. 15, with the deadline to complete the birdhouses on Sept. 26. A sign-up form is available on the Arts Councilās website at smartscouncil.org. More information is available at info@smartscouncil.org.
