Whatcom Art Guild hosts the final event of its yearlong celebration of the organization’s 50th year with its annual group show and sale, “Art at the Airport,” Friday through Sunday, Nov. 7-9, at Hampton Inn’s Fox Hall.

Lorraine Day, the guild’s publicity chair, says members are most proud of the guild’s five decades of support to artists of all levels, the opportunities it offers members for showing and selling their work, and the two main benefit programs the group runs — a silent auctions to fund scholarships for Western Washington University and Whatcom Community College art students, and a raffle of donated art to purchase art and craft supplies for children at St. Joseph hospital.
