Ideas for classroom art projects for AUCTION?

10 years 11 months ago #164622 by MMJ
Our school had their first auction last year. The biggest seller was the school wide art project that was a painted and framed canvas, 3 each about 4' X 2'. There were three of them, each representing a different season. All seasons represented trees in their various states/colors consistent with the season. However, the unique part was that the leaves were the handprints of the children. It sold for over $2000! It was professionally done, even with all the kids handprints.

Hi gheidi,

Glad the auction slideshow helped some. When you are looking for things on the site, you can use the search box for auction and auction-related items and you'll get directed to various resources on the site with auciton-related information.

But also for photos, you can take a look at our auction board on Pinterest. You can find that at pinterest.com/ptotoday/auction-tips-and-ideas/. We've been adding lots of photos to it lately.

Also, I just noted that a few other folks on this thread have Pinterest boards with raffle and auction ideas. You could give these a shot, too:

Good luck!

Spectacular, Jen! I'm going to shamelessly re-pin a bunch of those!

These might be a repeat, but we all collect them for auctions and raffles.

Thank you Rose, that is what I was looking for but couldn't find it anywhere. There was also a quilt mentioned but I didn't see it anywhere in the gallery. I'll keep looking. Do I find photos just in various message board topics or under File Exchange? For instance, without the link you provided, where would I find find the slideshow you linked?

Thank you! The auction items were fabulous and I got a lot of great ideas!

Hi folks,
I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but we do have an auction slideshow on the site here: www.ptotoday.com/slideshows/auction-gold-student-art-projects

Hope this helps!
