Blind Auction Fundraising Event

Saturday 27th September
Moretonhampstead Parish Hall
Entry: 50p

A relaxed, one-day event where you can browse and bid on a varied collection of original artwork, with no auctioneer and fully anonymous bidding. The selection will feature mostly 2D works by local and regional artists, with a few surprises in the mix. Whether you're a seasoned collector or just starting out, there's something for every eye and every budget.

• Bidding opens at 10:00 AM and closes at 4:00 PM sharp.

• Final results announced at 4:30 PM.

How It Works:

• Register at the door and receive your unique private bidder number.

• View the collection and place bids anytime throughout the day.

• Bidding is blind and anonymous: only the current highest bid is visible - not who placed it.

• Want to raise your offer? You can re-bid at any time.

• Some artworks may have a reserve price; others start at any amount.

• Can’t stay all day? Set your maximum bid on the sheet and we’ll handle the rest.

Make a Day of It! Relax with coffee and a light lunch as you browse, bid, and enjoy the social buzz. Whether you’re a collector, a first-time buyer, or simply curious, there’s something for everyone.

All proceeds support our mission to bring contemporary art to the rural landscape and enrich cultural life in our community. When you bid, you’re not just acquiring art - you’re supporting creativity where it matters most!
