MARSHFIELD — New Visions Gallery recently announced that Fun d’Arts 2017 will be held as an exclusive online auction. New Visions has encountered some challenges with the traditional Fun d’Arts event and is not able to hold the event as previously planned.

Items are available for preview now at biddingforgood.com/fda with online bidding starting Feb. 1 at 8 a.m. and running through midnight on Feb. 4. Bidding is open to everyone with the exception of items that cannot be shipped or are noted in the descriptions as “local only.”

There are more than 160 items to bid on this year, including Disney World Park Hopper Tickets, a vacation home stay in Germany, original artwork, jewelry, tickets to local arts events, gift certificates, a Clyde Wynia crane sculpture, and much more. Many of the items can be viewed in person in the lobby just outside New Visions Gallery in the main Marshfield Clinic campus building located at 1000 N. Oak Ave.

New Visions has a long history in the community of supporting the visual arts. Fun d’Arts has been a major component of funding the mission and operations of New Visions and will continue to be through this online auction.
