Lafrowda art auction 2025
Auction – Saturday 17th May at 7.00pm – The Commercial Hotel, St Just
Preview – Saturday 17th May between 10.00am and midday.
Over 30 artists from across Cornwall have generously donated their work to help us raise funds for the Lafrowda Festival. The auction lots include paintings, ceramics, 3D work and jewellery.
We are also holding an art competition in our local schools – and the winners will be chosen by artists Jack Davis and Anthony Frost. The winning artworks will be on show at the auction.
So please come along on 17th May for a great evening – you might find just what you need for that empty space on your wall!
The Lafrowda Art Auction is generously supported by The Commercial Hotel and McFadden’s.
