Donate to the Guild’s biggest fundraiser of the year!
It’s that time again to grab that box of tools and neat stuff to drop off for our annual Silent Auction! The Silent Auction is the main fund-raising event for the Seattle Metals Guild, funding artists grants, events, and the Annual NW Jewelry & Metals Symposium. Each year the auction raises thousands of dollars during this event!
It’s a great time to pass on all the old tools and cool stuff you’ve been meaning to do something with and haven’t gotten around to and want to pass on to someone who will put it to good use and raise some funds for the guild at the same time!
With your donation of tools (new or used,) stones, equipment, materials, jewelry, objects that you think are great and jewelry-related. We are looking for really cool things that jewelers, artists and metalsmiths would totally get into arm wrestling fights and bidding wars over that would mean little to most “normal” people! (We do not want items like magazines, and unrelated books or materials.)
Please contact Jennifer Stenhouse with any questions:
