Lisa Oakley, glass blower and second-generation owner of Cedar Creek Gallery in Creedmoor, has blown 55 exquisite glass Spring Eggs. Five will be auctioned to the top 5 bidders and the remaining 50 will be raffled. All proceeds will be donated to the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina. Last year, Cedar Creek Gallery and its loyal community donated $20,000. This year, we are looking for additional recognition of this event, with your help, to feed even more families.
Winners will be announced on Sunday, April 10.
