We are proud to announce the Seventh Annual PyCon Charity Auction. PyCon 2016’s auction was a huge success raising over $14K for PyLadies on over 40 items from sponsors and fellow attendees were auctioned off.
This is a fun and entertaining way to support the PyLadies community. A good sense of humor is recommended and bidding is not required.
The PyLadies Auction is taking place **Saturday, May 20, 2017 at 6:30pm Room F149-F152** in the Oregon Convention Center. A small cover charge is required for refreshments, and can be paid as part of your PyCon registration or at the auction door.
