The 14th Annual Festival of Chairs, benefitting the Children’s Advocacy Center of North Central Arkansas, was held recently at the Centennial Valley Events Center in Conway.

Judge David Clark and Judge Troy Braswell were honored at the event for their commitment and service to the children in the community.

The signature feature of the Festival of Chairs is the beautifully re-purposed chairs that go up for auction. Talented local artists take broken and damaged chairs and with a lot of love and creativity bring them back to life. The chairs are symbolic of the children and families the Children’s Advocacy Alliance serves on a daily basis.

In addition, this event offered a sampler of food from area restaurants and an extensive line of silent and live auction items. Dr. Sher Craig won a diamond ring given away in a raffle sponsored by Fletcher Smith’s Jewelers. Live music was provided by Two Hole Punch.
