From out of the ordinary to the extraordinary, the silent and live auctions will offer a glittering array of fine art, jewelry and wonderful gift certificates for restaurants, hotels, adventure tours and more.

This selection is enough to tempt even the most discriminating dreamer. You’ll also be able to bid on pieces of art by Meg Barnaby, Liz Miller, Gregg Smith and many others.

Volcano Art Center’s master chef will cater a tantalizing menu consisting of a wide array of New Orleans’ delicacies such as Jambalaya, shrimp and grits, succulent beef basted with praline butter, Antoine’s classic Caesar salad and the ever popular, mouth-watering truffles.

Champagne and fine wines also will be served.

It all happens 5-9 p.m. Feb. 13. Tickets are $55 for VAC members, $60 for nonmembers and $65 at the door.
