Silver Eye

Bid Now on Artsy

Silver Eye is excited to announce that we are going forward with our signature fundraising event, The Silver Eye Benefit Auction, by holding a silent online auction with our partner Artsy from June 25th and close bidding on July 9th.

Keeping the community spirit of our traditional Preview Party alive, on Friday, June 26th we will be holding a Virtual Auction Preview Party! You may be asking yourself, what on earth is that? Since we can’t be together in real life we are planning a giant Zoom bash where we can digitally come together, share a toast, meet a few of the amazing artists in the auction, and explore all the photos up for bid while we listen to a special performance by WYPE 2018 local artist of the year, twnspple.

The Auction remains our most important fundraiser, and proceeds support our exhibitions, our artists, our educational programs, and keep our gallery free and open to all. As an organization we have already faced difficulties we could not have imagined when the year began, and we know the road ahead will be challenging, but we are determined to continue to give exceptional artists a platform in our community.

By placing a bid at the Auction or purchasing a Ticket to the Virtual Auction Preview Party, you will help to sustain a future that will keep compelling, beautiful, and challenging art in our community. You can see all the photographs up for bid in our catalog PDF, and on Artsy starting June 25th.
