The Education Fund For the Love of Art Charity Auction & Honoree Celebration, presented by Ocean Bank, is one of Miami\u2019s most unexpected nights out. It is part gallery opening, part live auction, part community celebration of public school graduates.<\/p>\n

Every piece up for bid was made by a public school student or teacher using free donated supplies. This year features two categories: Art of Found Objects, turning discarded surplus into one-of-a-kind works, and Beyond the Page, a new paper art category made possible with support from Frederick A. DeLuca Foundation, which also is sponsoring three hands-on art activations: Tote-ally Creative, a live screen printing station; Fold-tastic, an origami station; and Red, White and Hue, an interactive color wall.<\/p>\n

The evening includes live music, an open bar, an epicurean feast, luxury items, and the Public School Alumni Achievement Awards, honoring Miami-Dade public school graduates who have gone on to make their mark across business, law, medicine, media, and more.<\/p>\n

All proceeds benefit arts education and The Education Fund Ocean Bank Center for Educational Materials, which has delivered more than $32 million in classroom supplies to public school teachers.<\/p>\n
