Art Auction Opening + Artist Party
Feb 2, 2024 at 5:00 PM
Join us at the YAM on Friday, February 2nd to kick off the festivities for the 60th Anniversary Art Auction! We will celebrate the artists in this year's exhibition with live music from the Jessica Fiveland Quartet, dancing, Quick Finish Artists, food and drink, and more! The Art Auction Opening Artist Party coincides with First Friday and ArtWalk in downtown Billings, and will be FREE and open to the public.
At 6 PM the museum will make a special announcement. Plan your night to be in-person for the big news!
The 2024 Auction exhibition will be on display in the YAM’s galleries from Friday, February 2 through Sunday, March 2. The signature fundraiser features several events including an opening reception, talks with auction artists, and the live auction gala finale. Artist talks will take place on Thursday evenings during the run of the exhibition. The live auction gala on March 2nd will conclude the bidding for absentees and those attending.
The annual Art Auction raises crucial support for the exhibitions and educational programs that the Yellowstone Art Museum presents to the community year-round. The YAM is dedicated to showing our appreciation to our regional artists, patrons, and partners by giving back to the community, not only through outreach and education programs, but by bringing in exhibitions that provide a platform to engage in critical conversations concerning modern art and culture.
