The Conservancy's online silent auction opens Monday, November 2, at 3 p.m. MST

 

This year's auction offers nearly 40 exclusive Frank Lloyd Wright experiences.


Stay overnight at the Brandes House, dine at the Coonley House, or enjoy a curated architecture weekend in Mexico City, Fayetteville, or Buffalo! There’s also artwork, books, and memorabilia. All proceeds support our mission to save Wright. 


New this year: raffle tickets (already on sale) fund the John G. Thorpe Fellowship, enabling emerging professionals & graduate students to attend our conference. This year's two prizes are a registration for our 2027 annual conference in Philadelphia and Out and About Wright Tulsa & Bartlesville next spring.


Anyone can participate. Browse the catalog & buy raffle tickets today!
