Both a silent and live auction will feature unique birdhouses and other nature-themed art handcrafted by local artists. Festivities include music from CJ the DJ, a hosted bar with specialty beers and wine, and gourmet food from local restaurants. All this for $15 at the door.

We are asking members of the community to help create and donate birdhouses and other bird-themed art. It's fun to make a birdhouse and the creative opportunities are endless. The BVAS nature center has some basic birdhouses for sale ($8.00 each), or just create your own! Please see our facebook page to observe some of the treasures that have already been donated. Our website (bvaudubon.org) has examples from past years. Please bring your crafted birdhouse or art to our nature center.
The birdhouse auction is BVAS's main fundraising event; over the past seven years, this event has brought in almost $60,000 to help support our conservation, advocacy, and education mission. And it’s a lot of fun too!
