Great Goose Egg Auction 2017

We’ll let you in on a secret: – we raised over $7,000 in support of Open Fields!

The Secret

On October 7, 2017, we auctioned off 37 eggs, donated by artists, authors, illustrators, and others.

We raised over $7,000 for the support of Open Fields School. About $3,000 came from bidders at the auction; the rest from absentee bids left at the preview, bids submitted online, and phone bids.

Egg Auction 2017 Poster A price list is available, if you’re interested in seeing what your favorite egg brought at auction.

Thanks to all our wonderful artists, enthusiastic bidders, generous sponsors, and to our inimitable auctioneer, Dean Whitlock.

We’ll be doing this all again in 2019! If you’d like to be added to the Open Fields mailing list, and receive notices of this event, our biennial Medieval Faire, and other goings-on at the school, email info@openfields.org or fill out our request for information form.

You can still download the poster, designed by Meg McLean.
