MIDDLETOWN, Calif. – For the fourth year in a row Cobb artist Karen Turcotte will donate a painting from her “Boarded Horse” series for the live auction of the Middletown Rotary Club’s 22nd annual Crab Feast and Auctions fundraiser on Saturday, Jan. 25, 2014.

The two acrylic and plywood paintings pictured above will be finished in time but which one goes to the live auction? That’s Turcotte's decision, and we won’t know until the auction.

Tickets for this usually soldout event are available from Middletown Florist & Gifts, 707-987-9500.

Tickets are $50 per person, and the event is held at the Middletown Lions Club on Central Park Road, Middletown.

Doors open at 5 p.m., dinner starts at 6 p.m.

If you wish to donate to the Auction, contact Thanh Fults at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .

It’s a great way to support your community, and all proceeds go to humanitarian projects.
