Auction
This year's silent auction will feature a variety of unique Bay Area experiences.
100% of auction proceeds help to sustain SF Civic Music. As a volunteer-run nonprofit organization, we rely on the support of generous donors like you to keep concerts free for the community and playing opportunities accessible for our musicians.
*Please note we will not be able to accept cash at this event, so bring a credit card. We will have a Square reader and will also accept checks made out to ‘SF Civic Music Association’.
Street parking is limited but there are several accessible parking garages nearby. It is recommended to take public transit to the venue via MUNI or BART.
