Jan Lovett and Annette Blankenship of Ocean Wave Quilters’ Guild preview their 16th annual scholarship auction.  The auction started in 1999, with two scholarships of $500 each. Last year, the auction raised about $2,000. The guild will give two scholarships this year to graduating seniors from Sitka High School and Mount Edgecumbe High School, and will also donate money to the Sitka Fine Arts Camp scholarship fund. The auction will be held at 7 p.m., Tuesday, March 4, in the Exhibit Room at Centennial Hall. A word of advice from the organizers: get there on time — the quilts go fast!
