HOPE ACADEMY AUCTION SEES GOOD ATTENDANCE

More than 200 students, parents, and art lovers attended the student art auction Tuesday night at Hope Academy in Yucca Valley. The silent auction of 120 student-created art pieces raised more than $2,000. A couple of artworks were part of a bidding war, and sold for more than $100 each. Proceeds from the fundraiser will go toward school programs. Hope Academy is a charter school located in the Town Center Mall.
