The Firstdraft Auction is back and this year it turns 13!

Our annual fundraiser is a time to come together and celebrate artists supporting artists.

The auction will be live from Friday 11 – Friday 18 November, and we're delighted to announce the return of an on-site exhibition – in addition to browsing and bidding online, you'll also be able view all the artworks in person at Firstdraft.

The 2022 Firstdraft Auction culminates in the Artists Party – a free celebration from 6–10pm Friday 18 November, where all are invited to Firstdraft to countdown the final hours of the auction.

When you buy an artwork at the Firstdraft Auction, half of the sale helps us pay fees to every artist who participates in our program, while the other half is paid to contributing artists. Put simply, 100% of your money goes back to artists.

Sign up here to receive priority access to special auction news, events, and promotions.
