At the conference, we'll be holding an auction of unique, delightful treasures created by artists from all over. The winners will take home something very special. We'll also be giving away door prizes at the Saturday and Sunday luncheons. Just to whet your appetite, we'll be posting descriptions, photographs, and artist bios for many of the items below, so you can learn more about them and about their creators. To see the selection of items from our 2010 conference silent auction, go here.
If you'd like to donate an item to the auction or for a door prize, go here. If you'd like to donate an item for the gift bags go here.
