Welcome to the Chuck Jones
Center for Creativity!
Friday evening, May 11th, the Chuck Jones Center for Creativity hosted its 2nd Annual Red Dot Auction at its new facility in Costa Mesa at South Coast Collections. A record crowd turned out in all their artistic finery and bidding on the donated original works of art began immediately and continued unabated right up until the final ringing of the gong closing the silent auction portion of the evening. The evening was catered by 24 carrots and was it ever wonderful!
We can't show you artist Mike Peraza's donation to the Red Dot Auction, the spring fund-raiser for the Center, but we can tease you with what he wrote in his blog a few weeks ago. Click here to read the article.
The Chuck Jones Center for Creativity, a Newport Beach Film Festival Event Sponsor, will be hosting a morning of Chuck Jones animated cartoons at Triangle Square, Costa Mesa (at the intersection of Newport Blvd., 19th St., and the terminus of the 55 freeway) on Saturday, April 28th at 11 AM. Among the many favorite short cartoons to be shown will be one of his masterpieces, "One Froggy Evening."
