A New Artist in Ponyville: The Story of Creativa Artly

by Creativa-Artly01


Chapter 4

A few weeks later, I attend a charity event and brought along some artwork to sell in the silent auction. A few minutes later, I arrive at the venue: Castle Theater which is only a buggy ride away from the main castle in Canterlot. There, I unload my art in the second gallery room where the silent auction will be held. I then go into the main gallery room, where I am greeted by Twilight and another one of the acts of the night, a pony known as Coloratura. "Creativa, this is Coloratura, she'll be singing at today's event," says Twilight to me.

"Nice to meet you," I say to Coloratura with a smile.

"You, too, but please just call me Rara," responds Coloratura.

"Okay, Rara," I say, "my name is Creativa."

"That's a beautiful name, I've heard of you before, you came here with the traveling gallery didn't you?" she asks me.

"Yes," I respond, "and I moved here not long after that."

Rara and I then walk off for a little bit. We soon meet up with Applejack and we all enjoy a nice lunch together before the charity event begins. An hour later, the charity event gets off of the ground. Rara kicks it off with her most popular song, "The Magic Inside (I'm Just a Pony)". Once she's done with that song, Twilight takes the stage.

"Hello, I'm glad everypony here could make it today. Today, we are doing a charity event to raise money to help the Ponyville Orphanage. You can help by either donating, participating in the silent auction, or even just buying things from our vendors that are around the grounds here. Now, enjoy this next song, a beautiful duet between Countess Coloratura and Songbird Serenade titled "For the Children". Enjoy!"

Songbird and Coloratura then take back to the stage and begin to sing. "Everypony needs a hand, a helping hoof when they fall down. Every child needs their own bed, their own family. Consider adopting, if not for yourself, do it for the children. Do it for the children. Children, they are such a gift to this world. Show them that they're appreciated. Show them that you love them, show them that you care. Give them a hand, give them a hoof, give them a home. If not for yourself, do it for the children. Do it for the children. Children are our future, so let's help them while we still can. Let's make their dreams come true. Let's lend them a helping hand. Let's also lend them a home or give them one permanently. Foster, adopt, do it for them. Do it for them. If not for yourself, do it for the children. If not for yourself, do it for the children." The two then take a bow and come back up and are soon greeted by much applause. Meanwhile, I'm busy in the vending area selling prints and crafts and even my smaller paintings to the ponies who are interested in buying them. I'm glad to be selling some of my arts and crafts to help the orphanage. I then begin to glance around me and see ponies selling everything from other crafts to baked goods. I then look at the stall three rows over from me and I see Pinkie Pie selling cupcakes and cookies. I look towards her and wave and she waves back. I then look two rows behind me and see Applejack selling Zap Apple Jam and wave and she waves back and gives me a sweet "Howdy!" as well.

A few hours later, everypony breaks for lunch before getting back to their assigned spots. Meanwhile, other ponies head into the silent auction and begin the bidding. Everything is just perfect today. There's nothing like helping a charitable cause. Everypony here can agree to that.

Around five hours later, the charity event ends off with a big fireworks display. We all then go off and count the money together. We got over $50,000 for the orphanage. Everypony is thrilled especially Twilight. She's glad the charity event was a big success. The next charity event on her list is the book donation for the Libraries of Equestria Group which fills up libraries all across Equestria with books from Ponyville to Canterlot. I'm glad Twilight cares about changing the world for the better. That is a worthy goal for anypony to have including a princess like herself.
