Butterflies, magic, music and a live auction performed by professional auctioneer Darren Moore is just some of the entertainment scheduled for the 2022 Flutter at the Fountain Gala at the Garden on Saturday, Nov. 5, from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. in the Fountain Hills Community Garden.

During the live auction portion of the evening, guests can purchase a chance to win a 13.5-carat amethyst in the Sami Fine Jewelry’s Bubbles, Buttacakes & Bling contest and bid on Amy, a 12-inch amethyst butterfly with a gold leaf created by local artist Mary Molnar.
