Let’s Picnic! Online AuctionJoin us for this online fundraiser to benefit the Sandwich Arts Alliance for a chance to win a stunning hand-painted picnic basket, designed, painted and signed by a Sandwich Arts Alliance artist and filled with a gift card to a local favorite restaurant.
|
The Let’s Picnic! Online Auction was created this year to replace the SAA Annual Gala, which was canceled due to the constraints of COVID-19. This year, you can enjoy picnicking at home – with a unique artist-inspired picnic basket – while helping the Sandwich Arts Alliance through these challenging times. Proceeds from this one annual SAA fundraising event will be used for programming, special events and operations, and is especially meaningful following our Center being closed and all exhibits and events being canceled. Thank you for your continued support.
