Mérida Rotary Art Auction

💬 "Where every brushstroke makes a difference."

The Mérida English Library is thrilled to partner with the Mérida Rotary Club for their annual Art Auction.  This is the third art auction, in which we bring together Yucatecan society, both local and international, to raise funds to support vulnerable groups in our state.  The event will be held once again at the Palacio de Musica in Santa Lucia, on November 15 beginning at 7:30 PM.  Read more on the Rotary web site.

Join us for an unforgettable evening, meet the artists, enjoy a glass of wine, and explore the exhibition with our expert curators while discovering works from emerging and established artists.  This Art Auction has more than 20 artists and over 100 pieces of art committed to this event.  This event includes a Live Auction and a wide array of artists sharing their experiences and selling their creations.  During the morning, about 150 school children will be viewing the art work and meeting with local artists on hand. 

Proceeds from this event will go to help our community with a variety of programs focused on helping children and women. This event, organized by the Mérida Rotary Clubs, is partnering with many local charities such as the International Women’s Club, Progreso Apoyo Program, and Renacer Children’s Art Program sponsored by Yucatan Giving Outreach. This event is also supported by our corporate sponsors: Easy Legal Mexico, White City Properties, Mayan Home Properties, Espacio 3, Soho Galleries, Nahualli Galaria and Galaria Urbana.

Tickets are on sale starting October 13 at MEL or online in the MEL Shop, at a cost of $1000 each but your family or individual library membership entitles you to a special “buy one get one free” opportunity.  We invite you to discover works from emerging and established artists, bid on your favorites, and enjoy live music and food in a world-class venue. Please join us for this worthy cause!
