10th Annual
Benefit Auction of Miniatures
Created by The Northwest’s Finest Artists, original Miniatures will be auctioned with the proceeds supporting the Hockaday’s mission "to enrich the cultural life of our community and region, and preserve the artistic legacy of Montana and Glacier National Park".

In 2011, 9" x 12"-sized miniatures will first be offered for sale by silent auction in the Museum.  A selection of those pieces will be juried into the live auction to be held at the Hilton Garden Inn on May 13.  The main event is an evening of superb food, drink, elegant musical complement, and the excitement of live auction.

"Real Miniatures" (4" x 6" postcard-sized original works) will remain on display at the Museum April 27 through May 21 and be offered for sale via silent auction.
