Purchasing a ticket to the Live Auction enables you to take part in a gala evening of excitement and beauty. Live Auction attendees can get a chance to purchase art from world renowned Native American artists. A ticket provides you an entrée, a bid card and complimentary beverages and food.
The Live Auction has become an increasingly important part of the revenues that enable SWAIA to put on Santa Fe Indian Market each year, as well as the other programs and services that it provides to Native American artists each year. The Live Auction ticket and the art that you purchase supports SWAIA! Last year the Live Auction generated approximately 25% of SWAIA's annual revenue.
Live Auction tickets can be ordered on-line or by calling the SWAIA office at 505-983-5220.
Silent Auctions
Another wonderful opportunity to purchase quality artwork by some of American's best-known Native artists are at the Silent Auctions that take place at Santa Fe Indian Market. For years, a Silent Auction has been held as a part of Preview on Friday evening. A Silent Auction is usually included as part of the Live
Auction festivities on Saturday evening, as well.
