St. Michael's Annual Auction: January 20, 2023
St. Michael’s Annual Auction is a time-honored tradition that continues to bring parents, alumni, faculty, and friends together to celebrate St. Michael’s students, programs, and initiatives. The Auction is the School’s largest fundraising event with spectacular auction items and unique entertainment in a fun and festive environment.
We are excited to continue the tradition this year at the John Marshall Ballrooms on FRIDAY, JANUARY 20, 2023. We will celebrate all things wintery — and the sparkling wonder of it all — with our auction theme of “Après Ski.”
Justin Swisher of Swisher Auctions joins us again as our auctioneer- ready to energize our guests with an evening of friendship, frivolity, and, most importantly, frenzied bidding! A wonderful night out to support St. Michael’s, the Auction is the not-to-be-missed parent event of the year!
