Silent Auction

We are excited to return to an in-person event this year in Glendale, Arizona. Following the success of our completely online auction last year, and since we will have a number of virtual attendees to Seminar this year, we are hosting a hybrid silent auction with both online and onsite items, so that all may participate. So, whether you participate in National Seminar with us onsite in Arizona or virtually from your home, everyone will have the opportunity to bid on a great lineup of donated items.

    Handcrafted Craft Items

    Are you a maker of jewelry, quilts, unique sewing projects, wood carvings, etc.? Consider donating your work either bell-related or otherwise.

    Music Commissions

    Each year, attendees look forward to bidding on music commissions from their favorite composers and arrangers. Your work would be a much-appreciated addition to the silent auction.

    A Weekend or a Week in a Timeshare

    If you have some days in a timeshare you will not be using, consider donating them to the silent  auction

    Handbell Books and Music

    Do you have books or sets of music that you’re no longer using? Perhaps they can find a new home through the silent auction.
