Portland, Oregon. It was a star-studded night at the 30th annual Oregon Episcopal School auction. Over 300 guests walked the red carpet past student paparazzi to celebrate the Golden Age of the Silver Screen. “Aardy Goes to Hollywood,” held at Montgomery Park, featured Auction Chair Michelle Fitzhenry, Co-Chair Hilary O’Hollaren, Master of Ceremonies Cameron Jack, and Auctioneer Kelly Russell.

OES Student ‘Paparazzi’ Welcome Auction Guests
Scene-stealing OES students appeared in a video entitled “A Second Home,” and then spoke to the audience on what it means to be an Aardvark. By the time the credits rolled at the end of the evening, the behind-the-scenes crew returned with box-office receipts totaling over $520,000.
The OES Auction is held every spring. Proceeds support the Aardvarks Advocate Skills and Knowledge (AASK) community educational partnership program, employee professional growth and development, and other important projects that enhance both the OES campus and student learning experiences.
