Our annual auction is one of the most anticipated events of the year at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Cleveland! It’s part fundraiser, part community celebration, and 100% fun.

Each year, members and friends of the congregation come together to offer and bid on a wide variety of items—everything from homemade dinners, baked goods, and artwork to services, outings, and one-of-a-kind experiences. You never know what treasures (or adventures) you’ll take home.

The auction is more than a fundraiser—it’s a way to strengthen connections, share talents, and support our mission of building community, nurturing spiritual growth, and working for justice. The funds raised help sustain our programs, maintain our facilities, and expand our outreach in the wider community.

What to Expect

• A lively evening with music, refreshments, and friendly bidding wars
• A silent auction for unique items and experiences
• A live auction for the biggest and most exciting offerings
• Opportunities to connect with friends old and new
