Be sure to set aside the evening of September 2, 2006 for the museum's second annual "Almost Labor Day Auction." The much-anticipated benefit event begins with a Silent Auction from 5:00 to 6:30. Included in the Silent Auction will be a marvelous assortment of items (too numerous to mention here), ranging from Broadway tickets, jewelry, items for the home, antiques, health and beauty items, a 5-year family membership to the OMAA, and more. Then from 7:00 to 8:00, Frank Kaminiski of Kaminiski Auctions in Beverly, Massachusetts will preside over a Live Auction offering a fabulous selection of fine art created by regionally and nationally recognized artists.
Artists whose work will be auctioned off will include:
Eric Aho, Tim Beavis, Dosier Bell, MJ Blanchett, Michael Culver, Cabot Lyford, Michael Palmer, Lincoln Perry, Rover Solotaire, Wendy Turner, Neil Welliver and Charles H. Woodbury. Click here to see some of the artworks to be auctioned.
All art works can be viewed on this website beginning August 1st. If you cannot come to the Live Auction, arrangements can be made to accept a one-time bid on art works by contacting OMAA curator, Michael Culver, at 207-646-4909. (No telephone bids can be accepted while the Auction is being conducted.)
Admission to the Auction will be a contribution of $35 (individuals) and $75 (patrons). Since space is limited, tickets will be sold on a first come, first served basis. All Auction patrons will be recognized in the event catalog. We encourage you to invite your family and friends in support of the Museum.
There will be delicious food provided by Kennebunk's The Silver Tureen, as will as fine wines, games, and musical entertainment.
Both auctions will be held in the Museum itself. Parking in the Museum lots will be on a first come, first served basis, but additional parking will be available at St. Peter's Church at 700 Shore Road. Transportation to and from St. Peter's will be provided by the Museum.
All proceeds from this event will be used to benefit the Museum's exhibitions and programs.
