“In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes” – Andy Warhol

Place Your Bid — Your 15 Minutes Start Here!

The Anderson Arts Center’s Annual Art Auction returns on Saturday, November 1, 2025, with a vibrant pop art twist. This year’s theme, “15 Minutes”, draws inspiration from Andy Warhol’s iconic quote, “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes,” and celebrates the bold, colorful worlds of Warhol, Keith Haring, and Yayoi Kusama. Guests can look forward to our signature silent auction featuring extraordinary works of art, along with immersive, interactive experiences designed to spark creativity and fun for all ages.

This year, more than ever, we are focusing our efforts on sustainability—ensuring the Anderson Arts Center remains a thriving hub for creativity, education, and cultural connection for generations to come. Funds raised from the auction help us:

  • Maintain our historic facility and gallery spaces

  • Keep exhibitions free and accessible to the public

  • Provide arts education and outreach to local schools

  • Offer classes and workshops for artists of all ages

  • Support emerging artists and their creative growth

We hope you’ll join us in making this year’s Art Auction not only a memorable night but also a meaningful step toward securing the long-term vitality of the Anderson Arts Center.
