Palomacy’s Very Exciting Online Auction Adventure!

Framed pastel painting, “Sunny” by Heather Hohlowski- SOLD!

This year, in tandem with our Summer of Dove party, Palomacy also produced our first ever online auction and it was awesome! It was fun and important. The birds in need of help flood in nonstop but our funding can’t keep up and we need new, creative ways to transform our supporters’ generosity into the dollars needed to keep Palomacy aloft.

Twenty-three donors contributed 30 amazing items including works of art, treasures for people and birds and compelling experiences. Over the course of eight days, 42 bidders raised $2,514 to help the birds!  Thank You! I’m totally new to this role of auctioneer and, while our first effort was lovely if I do say so myself, there’s lots of room for improvement and I’m excited to see what we can do as we learn more and refine our skills.

Speaking of which, who wants to help? I would love to keep this position for myself but over-extended as I am, it’s just not smart. We need a volunteer to take on the role of auction manager. It won’t take a lot of time (I’m thinking we’ll have three or four per year?). The Auctria platform that we are using (thank you, Penny!) is very well designed and lots of fun to use with the bonus satisfaction of cool features to engage. The ideal person will be imaginative, attentive to detail, eloquent with words, patient with follow up, appreciative of donors’ talents and skillful at merchandising and marketing. Please email Elizabeth if you’d like more information. To donate an item for our next auction, please complete and submit this form.
