Welcome to our first online auction! Our annual fundraiser has always played a key role in providing essential support for the Museum’s daily functioning and education programs. Now, with the coronavirus crisis, we need your strong support more than ever! Our summer fête offers a lovely and delightful opportunity to enjoy renewed camaraderie and celebrate how essential the Lyman Allyn is to the vibrancy of cultural life in our area.
We invite you to explore and bid on the wonderful items that were generously donated to our auction – from memorable experiences, to unique pieces of art, specialty items, and more! To view the items, and our fund-a-need donations, please click on the categories in the “View Items” dropdown box above.
Bidding is open from 9am on Friday, August 7 and closes at 5pm on Monday, August 10. You may visit the auction pages as frequently as you wish during that time to check the status of your items or to place additional bids (in fact, it might be a good idea to do so).
