This year marks the 28th annual Buckman Auction, taking place May 13 at 6pm at the Hinson. Celebrate our school and our community with a night of live music, food, drink, and, of course, bidding! As Buckman’s biggest fundraiser, the auction helps fund staffing to maintain the school’s arts and literacy programs. Tickets may be purchased online, and child care will be available
at the venue.
- The evening starts with a silent auction; some of our favorite items included acting lessons, a year’s worth of Voodoo Donuts; outings at Kells Irish Pub; date nights with food, Doug Fir tickets, and overnight at the Jupiter; and party packs for Commons Brewery, Basecamp, and WineBuys.
- Expect some great local cocktail and beer samplings, paired with an hors d’ouvres styled feast of cheese, wine, bread, fruits, and luscious deserts.
- A live auction will include awesome art produced by Buckman students. Our favorites last year: a beautiful Portland paper 3d skyline; a color mosaic portrait of the late David Bowie made while listening to the White Knight himself; and glass-fused art of the four seasons. The live auction will also include featured items such as coastal vacations, wine tasting tours, Thorns tickets, and more!

Thank you to the entire Buckman community for supporting our school and making the auction an amazing event!
