Art from The Heart

Art from the Heart moves to April in 2025! 
 

Saturday, April 5, 2025, 5-8pm: Join us as we celebrate the 41st annual Art from the Heart benefit auction and party at the University Art Gallery at Sonoma State University. Same great event but a new date!  

The University Art Gallery launched its first Art from the Heart benefit auction event in February 1984. Originally organized around Valentine's Day, according to its founder and then gallery director, SSU Emeritus Art Professor Bob Nugent. Since then, artists have donated thousands of works in generous support of the gallery's mission. Calls for artwork have recently included the work of current SSU Art Studio Students.

This annual fundraising auction promises to be an exciting evening of art, food, wine, and music. Come join us to share in community, art, and enjoyment.  Proceeds from the auction directly benefit the Art Gallery's exhibition, publication, and lecture programs—programs that educate and inspire our campus and surrounding community.
