The annual Folk Art Society auction will benefit the Herbert W. Hemphill Jr. Memorial Art Fund, which purchases or conserves an artwork each year for donation to a museum or university. Proceeds from the auction also support the publication of the Folk Art Messenger, as the $35 membership fee does not cover the cost. This is the Folk Art Society?s only fund-raising event each year, and its success depends on your generous contributions and participation.
The 10th annual online auction will be held for four weeks prior to the live auction event, which will take place October 28, during the conference at the Omni Hotel. The online auction will commence at midnight EDT on September 23, closing at midnight EDT on October 22. High bids from the online auction become opening bids for the live event.
