The Reveries silent auction supports soma anima arts in continuing to create innovative performances while keeping community dance workshops accessible, affordable, and welcoming to all.
Every bid helps cover essential costs like studio space, artist fees, and inclusive programming – bringing people of all ages and abilities together to move, connect, and create.
Browse, bid, and know that each item you win directly supports a more open and vibrant dance community.
The auction will close at the end of our Reveries event, on May 29th. If you’re joining us in person, you can take your item(s) home that same evening (after auction closes at 10pm). Otherwise, we’ll be in touch to arrange a convenient pick-up.
