The Donkey Mill Art Center’s 15th annual art auction, CONVERGENCE, celebrates the power of the arts to bring people, ideas and perspectives together in unity to inspire individual and collective well-being. As a place of convergence for the exploration of arts and culture, the Donkey Mill is honored to feature the works of over 75 works by emerging and established artists from Hawaiʻi and beyond. As West Hawaiʻi’s premier event for art enthusiasts and collectors, auction artworks include an exceptional selection of ceramics, paintings, kapa, photographs, prints, lauhala, jewelry and more.
This year’s event will feature a special award ceremony as the Donkey Mill is one of sixteen organizations nationwide to receive a Stand for the Arts award from Ovation TV, a Charter Communications (Spectrum Hawaii) subsidiary.
CONVERGENCE: Annual Art Auction is made possible through the generous support of fiscal sponsors: 2021 Stand For the Arts Award by Ovation TV and Charter Communications, Hawai‘i State Foundation on Culture and the Arts Biennium Grant, BREW, West Hawai‘i Community Health Center and in-kind donations by Kona Trans, Pictures Plus and Spirited Cocktail Catering.
Mahalo nui loa to the artists and community members who donated their art to support outstanding arts and cultural programming at the Donkey Mill.
