Sunday. March 16, 2014. By now this auction is over. Thank you to all the children and parents who poured their love into creating this beautiful auction offering. At our Gala last night, starting at a bid of $65, this auction package sold for $205. There were 8 bids by multiple bidders. Thank you to all who support our Waldorf School of Orange County in our 2014 Annual Gala and Auction.
Our Waldorf School of Orange County craft group got together to create a “Dream Castle Kiki” Raffle prize for our 2014 Annual Gala and Auction. Many children joined in to craft for that raffle offering.
After the completion of the large, epic “Dream Castle Kiki” Raffle project, several children requested to contribute more!

The Children’s Creative Process
Saturday, March 1, 2014. The children deep in the state of creating. Thank you Alena for hosting this crafting party in the pouring rain!
Our very healthy gourmet chef Alena prepared a delicious meal to feed the busy crafters! Roasted coconut oil tossed organic vegetables and asparagus soup, baked sweet potatoes among many other entrees warm us all in this rainy evening.
