DiCiccos, Round Table Pizza, and Gold Mine Pizza are participating with us in this event. It will be a collaboration of local restaurants with the jewelry artists to honor mothers through the expression of art.
Participating jewelry artists are David Caris, Judy DeRosa, Elsbeth Felman, Gretchen Lee, Ray McGee, Richard Nelson and Merylyn Whited. Each jewelry artist is donating a special jewelry piece for a raffle, with tickets on sale at Timberline Gallery, and proceeds donated to the Children’s Museum of the Sierra.
