MCA 2024 Annual Auction | Pop Party!

SAVE THE DATE!! Marion Cultural Alliance (MCA) is thrilled to announce that this year’s annual auction will be a hybrid event, kicking off with an online auction on Friday, September 6 during MCA’s September member’s reception. The excitement will build up to a grand finale on Friday, September 13 from 6-8pm at The Brick (23 SW Broadway Street), with an in-person party held two hours prior to the conclusion of the auction. Throughout September, the exhibit “COLOR POP!” will brighten the MCA Gallery, offering guests a vibrant atmosphere surrounded by colorful art. To complement the theme, the party will feature pop-related refreshments such as popcorn, popcyles, cake pops, poptarts and bubbles!

During the in-person event, all auction items and experiences will be on display, providing guests with the opportunity to see what they are bidding on firsthand. MCA will enhance the festive atmosphere with complimentary beer, wine and a signature cocktail, topped with a selection of pop-themed snacks available throughout the event. MCA’s online platform (OneCause) will continue to engage donors, providing real-time prompts and status updates on their bids, ensuring a seamless and interactive bidding experience.

In a special collaboration, MCA is partnering with Gray Realty to feature a live auction as part of the evening’s festivities. The highlight of the live auction will be a custom-painted “Horse Fever” life-size horse statue, along with a few other exclusive items that the committee will be curating. Excitingly, 100% of the proceeds from the auction will contribute to MCA’s Give4Marion Campaign.
