Sally King Art Auction:
This year’s Chili Cook-Off at MainStage Brewing features something extra special: two original works by beloved Lyons artist Sally King, available in a mini silent auction. Known for her colorful, whimsical bears and vibrant florals, Sally’s work can be found throughout Lyons—most famously in the 3 Bears Garden on High Street and the golden bear statue on Main Street. See the two pieces available for auction here: https://www.lyonsgardenclub.com/chili-cook-off#sally-king.

All profits from the Chili Cook-Off benefit the Lyons Garden Club, whose mission is to "Make Lyons more beautiful, one flower at a time."
