THE MARGARET RUNYAN GALLERY PRESENTS: Auction for the Arts

Join us for the Clio Center for the Arts’ 2nd Annual Auction for the Arts, running online from June 3rd to June 11th! Items will be on display through out the event in our Margaret Runyan Gallery.

This exciting event is your chance to bid on a fantastic selection of items while supporting our mission as a 501(c)(3) non-profit. Every bid helps us keep class prices low and the arts accessible to all.

Our auction features a wide variety of items generously donated by local businesses and community members. From unique gift baskets and event tickets to one-of-a-kind artwork, there’s something for everyone.

Join us in-person on the final day of bidding to see the items in person, and join our auction wrap-up party from 5-8pm.

As bidding comes to a close, don’t miss our live-streamed event from 6-7pm, where our board members will provide updates and keep the energy high as the last bids roll in.

Mark your calendars, spread the word, and get ready to bid! Your participation helps keep creativity thriving in our community.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to making this event a success!
