BEDFORD, N.Y. There will be a silent auction at Fox Lane High School commons, Thursday, Nov. 3, 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., to raise funds for the renovation of the high schools art gallery courtyard.
The auction, sponsored by Bedfords Friends of Music and the Arts (FOMA) and Community Education Foundation (CEF) will raise money that will allow for access to the outdoor patio, courtyard and sculpture garden where students creative efforts will be displayed.

Art faculty members Jody Chadwick, Sheri Brown, Leslie Carrone, Madalyn Grano, David Llanos, Nicole Metzner, Deborah Heyman, Natalie Todd, Heather Kranz, David Licata, Lauren Lamance, Lindsay Lappin and Stephanie Poggi-Sanfelice are all contributing original artwork.

In addition to the silent auction for artwork, community members can also support the Fox Lane High School Gallery Courtyard by purchasing a personalized engraved brick that will line the outdoor patio walkway.
We couldnt be more proud of the efforts of our staff, community and alumni to help out in this effort, said Heather Kranz, the visual arts coordinator. We hope to renovate our space into a museum quality area and outdoor courtyard that will showcase our students best creative efforts and will beautify the Fox Lane High School building for our community.
Checks or cash will be accepted on the evening of the auction made out to Bedford Central Schools Courtyard.
