Avant Garden Auction and Garden Party

Kirkland Arts Center proudly invites you to AVANT GARDEN, an auction and garden party fundraiser. At Kirkland Arts Center, we foster innovation and creativity in the arts by providing both instructional guidance and immersive exposure to artistic expression. Together we can meet our goal of raising $200,000 to sustain vital educational and gallery programming for our growing community. 

Garden party highlights:

- New Format: Instead of a formal sit-down dinner we're hosting a shorter garden party earlier in the day 3-6 PM with generous apps and generous pours. To reflect the change in format tickets are only $150 a person.

- New Venue: We're hosting this party at the beautiful UW Center for Urban Horticulture - the perfect venue for a garden party where you'll be serenaded by Clover Club, a live jazz and soul band.

- More Art, Experiences, and a Preview Show: Our art procurement team of instructors, brokers, and gallerists has been hard at work assembling a wonderful collection of artists from across the Pacific Northwest for our Live and Silent Auctions. This year you'll even have a chance to attend a Preview Show in our Gallery weeks before the Auction. In addition, we plan to have more auction items donated by local businesses.

Aren’t able to join us on May 18? We appreciate your support in lieu of attendance.
