Charlene Dwyer, President of the Pontiac Creative Arts Center, has joined the search for the artist who will recreate the prized auction piece for the Pontiac Heritage Ball.

The featured work will be inspired by Anton Van Dyck’s Philip Herbert, 4th Earl of Pembroke and unveiled as part of this unforgettable evening of elegance, mystery, and philanthropic giving.

This special auction piece will help support the mission of the Pontiac Heritage Historic Society as we work to protect, preserve, and restore Pontiac’s rich cultural legacy.

Who will be the artist chosen for such a distinguished assignment? Stay tuned.
