Wednesday Dec. 9th, the Westport Arts Center hosted a holiday shopping event at J.Crew in order to benefit the center.
All of J.Crew’s merchandise was 10 percent off, and 10 percent of the proceeds made are going directly to the Westport Arts Center.
The event featured art by Staples High School and Greens Farms Academy students. On the first floor Staples student artwork from Design & Technology, Digital Photography, Silk Screen, Watercolor, Drawing, and Honors Studio Art was displayed. On the second floor Greens Farms Academy students showed their sculptures.
Also at the event two a cappella groups, Beachside Express and Harbor Blues, from Greens Farms Academy performed numerous holiday songs.
Besides the shopping fundraiser there was a raffle during the event with $10 tickets including prizes such as a $250 J.Crew gift certificate, an evening clutch, a necklace, and a bracelet.
