Online and Live Virtual Auction
The auction is our biggest fundraiser of the year and our students still need your support as we move through these challenging times. Let’s come together to raise the critical funds required to provide a safe space for them to learn and grow—whether that’s in the classroom or in the digital classroom.
We are looking forward to "seeing" you on June 5, 2021!
If you have any questions, please contact Raven Norris at ravenducker@gmail.com.

Can I donate to RHS without having to register for the Online Auction?
Yes, you can click on DONATE NOW to submit a donation without having to register. However, we encourage everyone who will be participating in the virtual auction to register before the virtual auction begins. That way you'll be ready when the online bidding starts.
How do I participate in the Gallery Walk? How do I buy the artwork?
Click on the Gallery Walk button above to sign up for a spot. The Gallery Walk will be open on Friday June 4. Parents will be able to select spots during the day to view the student artwork in person. We recommend you walk this event with your child so that they can show you their unique contribution! If you really love the piece, join us during the live virtual event for your chance to bid on the piece. If you're the highest bidder, RHS staff will arrange to deliver the piece to you once the virtual auction has ended.
How do I participate in the virtual event?
Click on the Live Zoom button above when the event goes live on Saturday, June 5, 2021 at 8PM (PDT). We recommend you tune in with 2 devices (computer/tablet/cell phone) or open 2 tabs on your computer. This will allow you to watch the Zoom program and bid in the mobile bidding platform during the event.
What will the program be like during the event?
This program will be hosted by auctioneer Liam Mayclem, a legend who has hosted many of the RHS fundraisers. It will be a celebration of our community and an opportunity to help keep the doors open for Russian Hill School. We will have a live auction of the amazing artwork our kids have worked so hard to create, along with a chance for everyone to donate to Fund-a-Need — all from the comfort of your couch!
