WELCOME TO THE FINAL ROUND OF OUR SPECIAL ONLINE FUNDRAISING EVENT!

Aqua Art Miami, a key satellite show of Art Basel, is a selectively juried exhibition that’s an incredible opportunity for emerging artists to expand their reach to the international art scene. The artists of La Familia Gallery have been invited to participate in the 2009 Aqua Art Miami exhibition, and we need your help to get there!

This is your chance to bid on pieces from your favorite La Familia artists and potentially collect them for less than regular gallery prices. Of course, you can always stake your claim on a piece and “buy it now” as well!

AUCTION GUIDELINES

1. Click on the images below to see the work that’s for sale.
2. RSVP for the event if you'd like to bid, so that you have the ability to make comments.
3. The caption below each piece contains all of the information you’ll need to make a bid, including minimum bid, suggested increments and a “Buy It Now” price.
4. Place your bid as a “comment” below the image of the piece that you want.
5. NOTE: If you have any trouble with the comments section (there have been intermittent problems with this function lately), please let us know on the wall for our event, or email us at auction@lafamiliallc.com. If all else fails, write your bid on the wall and we'll copy it into the right place. :)
6. Each auction will last 5 days. If you choose to “Buy It Now,” the auction for that piece ends immediately after the “Buy It Now” bid is placed. Otherwise, at 5pm PST on the end of the 5th day, the highest bid wins the piece.
7. We will contact the winners of each individual auction to discuss the steps for payment. Since the auctions end on a Friday afternoon, please be prepared to pay on Monday or Tuesday of the following week; otherwise, artwork will be go to the next bidder down, or be put back into the auction. La Familia Gallery accepts cash, check or credit card.
8. For WA sales, we'll need to add a 9.5% sales tax to the winning bid. Sales tax does not apply to out-of-state sales.
9. All sales are final.
10. Auction prices do not include shipping costs. If necessary, artwork can be shipped via UPS; costs will be added to the total cost of the work based on size, weight and destination.
11. We will be making this auction available as a public link. If you want to bid on a piece but don’t have a Facebook account, you have a few options:
-Ask a friend with a Facebook account to bid for you!
-Email us at auction@lafamiliallc.com to let us know what bid you want to place. Please keep in mind, however, that there may be delays in response time for this option, so you may get out-bid.
