Welcome to the 10th anniversary gala auction for the Galena Center for the Arts! Our theme for this event is "Embrace the Experience," which you will see reflected in many of our auction items. Our online and in-person auction is raising money to support our arts programming, completion of our new building's renovation, and the purchase of signage for the Center along Highway 20 to make us more visible for visitors. All auction proceeds will go directly to support these needs. THANK YOU to all of our generous donors who have given auction items and have sponsored this event and to YOU for joining our auction and bidding generously! We wish you good luck with your bids!
