Hope and Healing Black Tie Art Auction

About the event: Dress your best*, bring your friends, and come ready to celebrate. Guests can bid on a range of unique artwork, purchase raffle tickets for amazing prizes, enjoy non-alchoholic drinks* and a selection of delicious hors d'oevres. You'll have an opportunity to hear about the incredible work being done to support folks impacted by sexual exploitation, and have an opportunity to hear from survivors themselves as they share their healing journey through spoken word poetry.

*Dress code: This is a black tie evening, and we encourage guests to dress for the occasion whether that’s a dress, a suit, or something that makes you feel fabulous. Let this be your chance to show up in style, however you define it. We also understand that formal-wear isn’t everyone’s thing, and that comfort, safety, and self-expression come first. If traditional black tie doesn’t feel right for you, please wear what feels good in your body. You are welcome here exactly as you are.

*Alchohol-free event: This year we have made the decision that our Hope and Healing event will be an alcohol-free space. We recognize the deep intersections between addiction and trafficking, and we know that many survivors live with the ongoing impacts of both. Out of respect for those in attendance, including survivors, we’re creating an environment that feels safe, welcoming, and supportive for everyone. This is a space for connection, celebration, and healing, and we want everyone to feel comfortable being fully present.

Info: The Silent Auction & raffle ticket sales will be available throughout the evening and will close at 9pm to provide enough time to purchase art & receive raffle winnings before the close of the event.

Info: More details to come!

Info: If folks have bid on art and need to leave earlier they will be contacted for purchase & delivery. Raffle winners will need to be present in order to claim their winnings.
