The 26th Annual Auction & Gala for St. Helena Sun and Stars Montessori was held 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Saturday, February 7th, 2009 at the historic Charles Krug Winery in St. Helena, California. Over $120,000 was raised for this great cause.

This year’s benefit “Saturday Night Fever” celebrates all things 70’s, including a rare, one of a kind wine lot from that storied decade. Attendees will enjoy fabulous food, great wines, and lots of disco dancing at this annual benefit to raise funds for the Montessori Family Center. Noted film, television and radio celebrity emcee Bob Sarlatte will preside over the festivities and Live Auction, which features one of wine country’s most amazing gathering of lots ever.

It is for a school auction and we want to paint it white, let it dry, and then paint our kindergartener’s hands and put their handprints onto it. I specifically need to know what type of white paint/primer to use and also what type of paint to do the handprints in, any other decorative touches, etc., and also how to seal it properly. It is a regular sized chair. Thanks for any help/guidance you can give. We truly appreciate it.

When you buy the paint just tell the salesman what you want to do and they will advise
