Going to artrageous!32

For the fifth year running, I have been accepted into Montserrat College of Art's juried auction, Artrageous! The first time I submitted, I was a senior in college. I had never had the nerve to submit my work to something juried before. It was a huge deal. The way the auction is structured is with two events: the ongoing silent auction that people bid on throughout the night, and the live auction. The live auction is where action is. It is usually announced by a celebrity auctioneer, and only the best 
work gets in. My first year, a photograph I made was in the live. It was so exciting! The event had nearly a thousand attendees. There was food, drink, networking, all of the makings for a high-end art event. When it was time for the live auction, all of the students who were selected stood together cheering as the price of each piece went up and up, until.... "SOOOOOLD!" The first time something you made and put your soul into sells for hundreds of dollars, it's like you are on top of the world. 

The past few years have been spent in the silent auction, including this year. It is amazing to see your work get into a "bidding war" when two people are desperately trying to outbid one another. It is once a year where you get to meet up with alumni that have been scattered, and come back to help support our school. If you are interested in supporting Montserrat College of Art, you can buy tickets to this amazing event here. It is so important to support our local art community and I hope to see you there!
