A little mystery, a lot of art, and an evening in support of our creative community.
Join us Saturday, October 24th for the Queen City Art Auction Fundraiser — an evening celebrating local artists while raising funds to help keep the arts accessible throughout our community.
The evening will feature a curated selection of original works donated by emerging and established regional artists, with opportunities to discover something you love and take a piece home through silent bidding.
And there’s plenty more to experience throughout the night:
- Original works from local & regional artists
- Silent art auction
- A special spotlight collection
- Opportunities to meet participating artists
- Light refreshments
- A chance to directly support arts access in our community
And every bid makes an impact.
Proceeds from the fundraiser support Queen City Art’s community art programs, workshops, and artists — helping bring creative opportunities and arts access to our neighborhood.
Whether you’re a seasoned collector, searching for your first piece of original art, or simply looking for a great night while supporting Charlotte’s creative community, you belong here.
COME AS YOU ARE, OR MAKE IT A MOMENT.
There’s no formal dress code, but this is a masquerade! Masks, festive fits, a little dark and mysterious flair, and your own creative spin are very much encouraged. Black, metallics, and shades of purple will embody the energy of the night, so have fun with it if you feel inspired! Come ready to enjoy the atmosphere, snap some photos, and add your own energy to the evening.
