Note: A PyLadies Auction ticket registration is required to log in and place bids. If you need to add a ticket to your registration head over to your dashboard.

We are proud to announce that the auction will be held virtually. We sure missed hosting the event and seeing everyone in 2020. The plan is to provide a fun and entertaining event to support the PyLadies community in a virtual way. A kickoff event will be held to explain the process and introduce the items, followed by a period of time to submit your bids for items you are interested in. The finale event will be held virtually to share auction winners and to recap the event. A small donation ($5 USD) is required in order to cover the cost of producing the event and to help support the efforts of PyLadies.

We hope you all plan to participate and bid on the auction items!
