In its first major fundraising effort after closing its doors from April-September 2020, The Watermill Center is proud to announce The Autumn Benefit Auction as part of its Annual End-of-Year Appeal.
The auction provides artists the chance to earn a twenty percent commission from the sale of their work, while the proceeds allow Watermill to keep its doors open for its year-round Artist Residency and Education Programs, which annually reach over 40 international artists, and nearly 1,000 local school-children and 150 educators each year.
The Auction will be live on Artsy from November 18 – December 9, 2020.
