HST Cultural Arts is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization of students in central Maryland who are being trained in excellence in performing arts.  Our program includes acting, dance, tech, make-up, and vocal classes to students in grades 4-12.  We also offer 2 choirs, a theatricals group, two middle school troupes and two high school troupes.  Our annual silent auction is to raise funds for costumes, props and sets for our 6 productions held in a 450-seat professional theatre in the Spring of 2021.  All of our donors to the Silent Auction are acknowledged in our professionally published season program.  Our annual Silent Auction will be held on Saturday, Nov. 14.  The bidding will be from 4:30pm to 7:30pm while the variety show will be from 6pm to 9pm. Like other organizations we are rising to the occasion to meet the challenges we face in 2020; taking necessary precautions and making sure guidelines are followed for the safety of participants.  Due to COVID19 precautions and restrictions, all of our auction items will be listed online whether we will be able to have the event in person or not. We will also move our variety show to an online format if need be.  Thanks for your consideration.
