"Buy it Now"
and bid on items until
4 p.m. on Wednesday, March 3
Open Monday-Friday, 9am-4pm
|
|
Over 300 unique pieces!
Because the gallery capacity is 20 people, we have changed things up a bit this year.
Each item has a BUY IT NOW PRICE, which offers you the opportunity to purchase and take it with you.
You can also bid on pieces with a minumum bid of 25% of the face value of the item and drop your bid in the white "bid box." You can also bid by sending an email to: VACArtAuction@gmail.com. The highest bid as of March 3 @ 4 p.m. will be the winner of that piece unless someone has already purchased it for the
Buy It Now price.
A spreadsheet with the highest bids will be posted in the gallery on Monday, 3/1 & Tuesday, 3/2.
You will be notified via phone or email after 3/3 @ 4pm. if you won!
Thanks for supporting the
Venice Art Center!

Please join us on March 11th for "Good Things Happen When Women Connect"
Studies show that women’s networks offer a space to exchange advice specific to the unique challenges women face!
During this webinar, we will discuss the importance of building a personal and professional network, how diversifying your own personal “Board of Directors” offers a range of benefits, from helping you gain perspective to having an advocate in and out of the workplace.

These garments are made of breathable, machine washable material offering 50+ sun protection and 4-way stretch.
They also carry a custom print featuring the Centennial Park gazebo and the Venice fishing pier. “Stop in today,” invites owner and manager Betsy Wietor. “ We enjoy meeting the locals, snowbirds, and tourists.”
