Gorgeous Quilt by Renowned Local Artist Now Open for Bidding in Support of Latah Recovery Community

Moscow, IDLocal News

Celia Boland, a celebrated fiber artist, donated one of her stunning quilts for a silent auction at Latah Recovery Community's Soups On! Fundraiser scheduled for November 5 in Moscow. The quilt will be on display at the Moscow Chamber of Commerce from October 24 to November 4, allowing the public to view it and place early bids. Bidding will continue until 1 PM on the event day, with all proceeds aiding the organization's efforts to provide free or low-cost services for those facing substance abuse and mental health challenges. Boland's artistry is deeply rooted in her upbringing in Idaho, where she was surrounded by creative influences, leading her to view fabric as a medium akin to paint.

Her dedication to the community is evident as she also creates quilts for the CASA program and Habitat for Humanity. The event promises a delightful combination of delicious soup and exquisite craftsmanship while supporting those in need. Boland’s work not only reflects her talent but also her commitment to enhancing the lives of others.
