Event Details

Shipyard Trust for the Arts

Be the first to see this fall’s Silent Art Auction at the Hunters Point Shipyard — 100+ original works donated by Shipyard Artists, with starting bids that can be a real deal. It’s also the perfect way to plan your Shipyard Open Studios visit (Oct 17–18): preview the collection and scout the artists you want to see.

Enjoy live jazz, refreshments, and a cash bar while you mingle with the artists in the gallery. Proceeds support free community arts events at the Shipyard, like Open Studios itself.

Space is limited — RSVP requested via Eventbrite. The auction continues online Oct 1–24 and in person during Open Studios weekend. Ample free parking. Wheelchair accessible. Presented by the Shipyard Trust for the Arts (STAR).
