BRUNSWICK — Maine State Music Theatre is holding its 12th annual silent and online auction to coincide with “Sunset Boulevard,” which runs through Saturday.
Each year many artists, craftsman, retailers and individual supporters of MSMT donate items to the auction that are up for bid as a fundraiser for the theater. The auction, which benefits MSMT, includes more than 150 items, including Giclee prints by Brunswick artist Alice Treworgy and a sculptural piece called “24 Common Spikes” made of forged steel by John Bisbee.
Items are exclusive to each portion of the auction. A photographic preview of much of the artwork being featured in the silent auction can be previewed on the MSMT website under the heading “Support MSMT.” The silent auction is held in the lower lobby of the Pickard Theater at 1 Bath Road on the Bowdoin College campus. Bidding for the silent auction takes place in person, at the theater, during each performance of “Sunset Boulevard” and during normal box office hours (Mondays 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Tuesdays through Saturdays 10 a.m. to evening intermission and Sundays noon to intermission).
