Fresh Art Live

 

Fresh Art Live, an auction event featuring live and silent auctions of contemporary fine art, will be held at the Muskegon Museum of Art on April 29, 2011. Patrons and supporters of the Muskegon Museum of Art will have the opportunity to bid for original artwork by prominent West Michigan, Midwest, and national artists. Proceeds from the auction will directly support MMA programs and exhibitions. Fresh Art Live artwork will be on display for preview in the MMA’s Walker Gallery beginning April 21. Scroll down to view works and names of artists who are contributing to the auction.  Silent auction bidding starts April 21. Special reserves may apply on some items. Items not meeting the reserve will not be sold. The Fresh Art Live event takes place on Friday, April 29, beginning at 5:30 with a public reception that is open to the public and is free to attend. Reservations are not required. Light refreshments and a cash bar will be available during the reception and the auction.  Both silent and live auction items will be available, with the live auction beginning at 7:00 pm. Silent auction bidding ends at 9:00 pm. Those wishing to bid on artwork during the evening will register at the door and receive a numbered bid paddle. Professional fine art auctioneer Bob DuMouchelle of Du Mouchelle's Gallery will conduct the auction, with bidding open to all registered attendees.
