Art works may be sold and taken home by the buyer at any point during the month long exhibition.

A silent auction for donated pieces will also be held during the night of the opening reception. Bidding will commence at 6pm and run until 8:00pm. Visitors at the opening will be given an auction packet detailing the artists and artworks up for auction. Each piece will have a starting bid and the highest bidder will win the sale of the auction.
