The annual Benefit Art Auction serves as the primary funding source for the Exhibitions Program at the Lawrence Arts Center. The galleries exhibit diverse artists in all media, ranging from local preschool children to internationally known artists. For the past 42 years, it has been a priority to keep exhibits free and open to the public. Artists generously donate original artworks at the Benefit Art Auction. This year the auction features over 200 works of art from more than 150 artists!
