Want to bid, but can't make it to the auction?

Have we got an option for you! Proxy bidding!

Yep, see #5 in our post below.

Auction Rules


100% of our profits go to our beneficiaries!


1. All bids must be in increments of $5 or more

2. Payments can be made in cash or cheque (payable to 'EarthTones 2006 c/o UTIHP')


3. Bidding can take place when doors open at Convocation Hall (Saturday, Nov. 18th) at 6:30 p.m., during the 20-minute intermission and all throughout the concert.

4. The silent auction ends 20 MINUTES AFTER THE FINAL CONCERT PERFORMANCE. It is at this point that whoever has the highest bid for an item will be declared the winner.

*N.B.: For those who e-mailed bids before November 18th, please keep in mind that the auction officially ends 20 minutes after the final concert performance the evening of November 18th. Thus, if you bid online and do not attend the concert, in the event that someone else makes a bid on the same item during the concert, you will no longer have the highest bid. If no one else bids on your item of interest during the evening of the concert and your online bid remains the highest, you will be declared the winner.

5. For those who want to bid on an item, but CANNOT ATTEND THE CONCERT: we are giving you the option to use our designated proxy. In order to utilize this free service, you must tell us your maximum bid(s) on the item(s) of interest -- don't worry, this will be kept confidential! In the event that a bid is placed on your item(s) of interest by someone else on Nov. 18th, our proxy will place a bid in your name with the minimum $5 increase. This will continue back-and-forth, if someone else keeps on bidding, until your maximum bid has been reached.

No matter what the outcome, whether you win or not, you will be e-mailed with the final result on your item of interest.

If you are interested in using our proxy, please e-mail us at earthtonesauction@gmail.com

Annoucement: An Art Party


Do you miss the days of kindergarten where you had free reign to be creative with your finger painting (and where all the supplies were provided for you)?
Do you want to donate something to the Earth Tones Silent Art Auction, but are either a) lacking the motivation to create something or b) thinking that you are not "artistic" and could not make anything to donate?

Well, you're in luck! In conjunction with the Meds Fine Arts Society, we're providing the paints, the brushes, the canvas, the wood, etc.
No prior experience is necessary at all! When you paint or draw with no inhibitions, you create your best works of art!

Join in the excitement and see how high people will bid for your masterpiece.

NOTE: This art party is open to anyone, even non-U of T students. So, invite your friends and family who may be interested!

WHEN: Tuesday, November 7, 2006 at 6 PM
WHERE: A room in MSB to be announced
HOW MUCH: $10 and the canvas, acrylic paints and brushes are provided for you. You can also bring your own materials.
RSVP: No later than November 1st to utfinearts@gmail.com
