Gala Items for Silent & Live Auction

On Thursday October 15th, the Rebel Loon Archive will host a fundraising gala, catered by Indígena by Owamni. An experienced auctioneer will host both a silent and live auction. Proceeds will support the Rebel Loon Archive’s continued existence and quest to preserve Minnesota protest art, and a portion of proceeds will also support the Immigrant Defense Network.

Please be aware: because a portion of proceeds will be passed along to support another organization, we are not able to consider these donations tax-deductible.

If you are connected to a local business who might be interested in donating any kind of package to the auction, please contact us or email Erica at rebel.loon.mn@gmail.com.

We are happy to promote businesses and creators who donate to the gala. Thank you so much for considering a donation!
