As a non-profit, Volcano Art Center relies on funds raised through Love the Arts for critical operating funds, expanding the VAC campus, and underwriting programs that enrich the community. If you've donated items to this important effort before, MAHALO! We really appreciate your continuing support. We hope you’ll help make our upcoming event a big success by donating a piece (or more) for our auction. If you have a garden-themed piece, wonderful, but that is not all we’re looking for. It’ll be a lively, fun, exciting gala that brings together community and raises awareness of the incredibly artistic culture we all support.
Please let us know as soon as possible your commitment to making a donation, and plan to deliver your item(s) and Donation Agreement to VAC by January 22, 2027. The Donation Agreement may be downloaded Here.
Mahalo nui loa for your ongoing support!
