This is much nicer than a ketchup stain. Im serious.

So that empty space above the couch... You know, with the ketchup stain. Or at least I hope it's a ketchup stain. You should really think about covering that up with a nice piece of art sometime. Like this weekend maybe. And as it happens Playhouse on the Square is hosting its 33rd annual original art auction on Saturday, April 17th so there are deals to be had. The Live Auction begins at 6:30 p.m. and that's when the Silent Auction, which opens at 10:00 am, closes. Boy howdy, that was a weird sentence. I promise to do better.

Complimentary hors d'oeuvres—described as "artsy" in the press — will be available for your snacking pleasure. Beverages will flow throughout the auction to aid in your appreciation of the work. Admission is $25 at the door but that amount is deducted from the price of any art you may buy.

So join the "pARTy" at the all new Playhouse on the Square. And cover up that nastiness already.

Look at all this freakin' art!
