2025 Auction Gallery Partners

Gallery Partners

From emerging to mid-career to established artists, the MassArt Auction exhibits more than 300 artworks every year. The MassArt Auction Gallery Partners serve an important role in supporting the Auction by submitting artwork on behalf of their artists and/or encouraging their artists to submit on their own, as well as helping to promote the Auction event to their clients and community. 

As the College’s single largest fundraising event benefiting student scholarships and academic programs, the MassArt Auction appreciates the generosity of our Gallery Partners. We also want to support the business of our Gallery Partners and honor their relationships with their artists. In addition to promoting our Gallery Partners and their artists to our audience and buyers, we offer a few different customizable consignment options: 

  • Paying Artists Directly: Gallery Partners forego their commission and have MassArt pay 50% back to the artist.
  • Paying the Gallery Directly: Gallery Partners have MassArt pay 50% back to the gallery.
  • Setting a Reserve: Gallery Partners set reserve amounts for specific pieces and allow the MassArt Auction to keep any additional proceeds made beyond the reserve amount.
