The Galena Center for the Arts needs to purchase a lighted sign for Highway 20 to direct visitors to the center. The Center used to utilize the Highway 20 billboard sign that directed visitors to the center, but with the recent construction, IDOT removed the billboard and left the center without signage by the highway. The cost estimate for a lighted monument sign has been bid at between $12,000-$15,000. Please help us to fund this need!
A note from Galena Center for the Arts: 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!
