The auction this past weekend was wonderful. I don't really have any other word for it. Seeing how much certain items went for (ahem, tiny chihuahua sculpture) was so exciting. Seeing that artists from all over Tucson were donating their work, which also translates to donating time, money, and effort, was super inspiring.
Everything about the event was wonderful- the space was amazing, everyone knew what they were doing, the acts were great and on time, nothing got damaged (to my knowledge).

I'm not sure what I expected of the Art Auction, but I know that I did not expect it to go as smoothly as it did. I think I assumed that it would be this crazy chaotic experience, so when the auction began, and most of us were still just standing around enjoying ourselves, not running around like chickens with our heads cut off, I was surprised. I don't know what it was exactly that made the night go so well, but whatever it was, I was grateful. I feel really grateful to have been able to be a part of the experience.
