    On Friday night The Poet House hosted an art auction to raise money for the construction of the Division Street Skate Park.
    The donation only event was a silent auction for skate decks painted, heat transferred, screen-printed, photo emulsified and developed, and a myriad of other mixed media art.
    As the drinks went down and the crowd got loose the bidding on a few of the skate decks heated up.
    One deck in particular, a Burning Man contraption driving through the Deschutes National Forrest painted by Adam Haynes, skyrocketed from a few hundred dollars to over $600, finally ending at an even $1000.
    Check out www.divisionstreetskatepark.org for more info on the project and to donate.
