The Arts Alive Art Auction is a memorial event in honor of Kathleen Gaynor Ferris, who passed away under hospice care. Kathleen's favorite pastime was attending local events featuring art - both created and performed. Her son and friends have coordinated this event to support hospice and palliative care patients and families of north central Wisconsin.
The Art Auction evening offers art pieces donated by local and regional artists which are auctioned during either live auction or silent auction. We also have raffles and drawings for donated prizes along with hors d'oeuvres, cash bar, and music all located in the Grand Ballroom at the popular Jefferson Street Inn in downtown Wausau.
New this year will be live music during the social hour, raffles and silent auction with continued live music for dancing after the live auction!
