Professional entertainer and Urbana native Michael Kent auctions Kee Kell Circle’s cake-inspired art during the “Bad Art by Good People” fundraiser at Brownridge Hall on Friday evening. The event is a major fundraiser for the Champaign County Arts Council, featuring the work of locally-known people trying their hand at amateur, personalized art. Each piece drew bids in the hundreds of dollars. A donated piece customized for the event by Hollywood actor Fred Willard sold to local attorney Ron Tompkins for $800. Artwork also raised money by drawing paid votes with online balloting and in-person monetary voting the night of the dinner. Todd Michael was the winner of online voting with 1,000 votes.
