NOKOMIS — The Nokomis Public Library will be hosting a harvest basket raffle that includes a piece of hand-thrown pottery filled with a variety of soup starters, biscuit mix, wooden ladle and other fallthemed items.

The pottery is the creation of renowned artist, Doug Hively, who is associated with Monmouth, OR. The total grouping is valued at approximately $100.

“This basket would make a lovely thank you for your Thanksgiving hostess or gift during the holiday. Of course, there is nothing wrong with keeping it for yourself, either,” said Nokomis Public Library Board Secretary Margie Eisenbarth.

Tickets can be purchased at the library or from Trustees Jake Leonard, Margie Eisenbarth, Gina Brown, and Margo Jenkins. The cost is $1 for one ticket or $5 for six. The winner will be drawn at 5 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 23.

The pottery piece was donated by Mary Lou Lindhal of Nokomis, with all proceeds going back to the Nokomis Public Library for continued funding.
