First Annual Small Works Auction

Get ready to bid big on small art!

Join the LCCA for the first ever Small Works Auction! Whether you're a seasoned collector or just looking to add a spark of surprise to your home, this is your moment to dive into a treasure trove of small art that packs a punch.

‍

🎨 Why this auction is special
◦ Every piece is created on an 8"x8" gallery-wrapped canvas; no frames, no fuss, just art that's ready to hang.
◦ Local artists of all levels bring their best to the table! Fresh, original works you won't see everywhere.
◦ Bidding happens online, so you can join the excitement from your couch, the coffee shop, or even between errands.

‍

🗒️ How it works
◦ Online bidding opens November 3
◦ The LCCA is hosting a closing auction event on November 20
◦ All funds raised fuel the Lancaster County Council of the Arts' mission: to enrich our community through vibrant arts, culture, education, and economic vitality.

‍

✅ Why you should bid
◦ This is a fun, accessible way to collect art! You won't need an entire gallery wall, just a little spot that needs some love.
◦ You'll support artists and help build an arts-friendly community right here in Lancaster County.
◦ It's the perfect opportunity to surprise someone (including yourself!) with a unique piece of art. "I got it at the Small Works Auction" sounds pretty good.

‍
