Isaac Hunter’s Tavern to Host Benefit for Sho Nuff and 1304 Bikes

This Saturday (May 15th) at 1PM the folks at Isaac Hunter’s Oak City Tavern are hosting a silent art auction to benefit the family of Russell Lee (“Sho Nuff”) and 1304 Bikes.

More information:

This Saturday starting at 1pm, Isaac Hunter’s Oak City Tavern will hold an art auction to raise money for charity in honor of local legend Sho Nuff. Artists will be working live on the patio to create pieces for sale throughout the course of the afternoon starting at 1pm. The event will feature many well known local artists including Anna Cole Taylor, Rob Ocera, Victor Knight, and Jason Payne.

The proceeds from the silent auction will be donated to both 1304 Co-Op Bike Shop and to Sho Nuff’s family to help cover the remaining expenses from his funeral.

In addition to the live art and the auction, Isaac Hunter’s will feature live music from Mystery Sushi and will be cooking up some delicious food to sell to help raise money as well.

The event starts at 1pm, and will last throughout the afternoon. High bidders on the auction pieces do not have to be present to claim their piece after they’ve made the bid.
