For the First Night Fundraiser on November 17 from 5pm-9pm, Show + Sale will be hosting a Silent Auction, where you can bid on one-of-a-kind art pieces made by students and alumni, and artistic experiences from AUArts. Bidding proceeds go towards the Show + Sale program and the AUArts Boost-a-Student Fund.
