Golf Tournament Online Auction
As you know. each year the Robeson Art Guild sponsors the Golf Tournament fundraiser at Pine Crest Country Club. As a major part of the project, we ask our artists to select two of their artworks for the sale. Jim Tripp photographs each piece of art offered. The photographs will appear on our website in a special online gallery where patrons can browse and bid securely.
Please select your two artworks and bring them to the Guild House Thursday and Friday, May 5 and 6, between 11:00 AM-4:00 PM, along with a brief biography and the dimensions of each artwork. Checks will be issued promptly after the online auction is concluded.
The auction will be online running for about a week before and concluding on the day of the Golf Tournament this year. We are working with BetterWorld.org to ensure that bidders see all auction items and can place their bids online securely, and that the auction concludes smoothly at the Golf Tournament. Artists and all RAG members will be provided with the online gallery link to share with their friends and patrons to help get the word out and make this another successful fundraiser!
Last year, we sold more than 50 pieces with every artist selling and this year we hope to do the same or better. You should set a minimum price and then let the magic of bidding “wars” drive the process. We look forward to success for our artists and the Guild. We also look forward to making our patrons very happy.
