Guests of a Laguna College of Art and Design scholarship fundraiser contributed $40,000 during an event last month at the new LCAD Administration Building, 2265 Laguna Canyon Road.

Attendees enjoyed tours and student demonstrations in the senior studios. Honorary chairs Kate and Jared Mathis together with co-chairs and trustees Sue Greenwood and Carla Arzente hosted the annual event. Arzente, owner of saltfineart, and Greenwood, owner/director of Sue Greenwood Fine Art, both donated paintings that were raffled off to benefit the scholarship fund.
