The Contemporary Dayton’s

Annual Art Auction

Returns to Dayton in a World of Color

DAYTON (February 27, 2023) – The Contemporary Dayton (The Co)’s biggest fundraiser event celebrates its 29th year with over 75 works of original art donated by Dayton-based artists on display at the most eclectic art party in town. The event will be held on April 28, 2023, in the Dayton Arcade’s Rotunda.

The Annual Art Auction marks a momentous moment in The Contemporary Dayton’s history, celebrating 29 years as the area’s longest-running art auction fundraiser and resulting in over 1,400 original works of art purchased to benefit the organization’s exhibition and education programs, and to live in homes all over the Miami Valley.

Now presented in the Dayton Arcade’s Rotunda, adjacent to The Co’s new home that doubled our space and expands our artist-centric mission and commitment to providing artists with opportunities and resources, 600 guests will become active participants in an immersive art experience guided by creative and content partner, Mitosis and complimented by a unique menu crafted by Bernsteins Caterers and Heidelberg Distributing that draw inspiration from the creative process.

Tickets start at $75 for Co Members, $90 for Non-Members, and $500 for pre-party access. All tickets are available to purchase now at codayton.org/auction.

The Annual Art Auction is the Co’s signature fundraiser in which the proceeds directly fund future exhibitions and education programs.
