6x6 Auction
IT’S BACK!!
Get ready for our Biennial Silent Auction Extravaganza!
Every two years, our community comes together for a silent auction (but it is never quiet) full of excitement and creativity. Your donations help us keep our programs running and offer free admission to everyone. Theme is "What Speaks to You?".
How you can join the Fun:
Come grab a cradled wood panel, create your fabulous art, don't sign the front! Because, when you come to bid on Friday night no one will not know who the artist is! Donate as many 6x6s as you like into the auction! We will accept your artwork from now until Saturday, October 5, 2024 at 2 pm.
Last year we had well over 300 pieces of artwork donated!
Artwork will be exhibited and available for sale by silent auction from October 9-11. BUT the final frantic bidding happens on Friday October 11 with appetizers, wine, craft beers and friendly competition!
THE RULES
1. The finished artwork must measure 6"x6" and be ready to hang. Cradled wood panels hang directly from the frame but everything else must have hanging wire/hooks
2. It must be signed on the BACK only! The auction is anonymous, this adds fun and intrigue for bidders trying to guess who the artist is!
3. Use any medium, style or material
