Dinner à la Art Fundraiser
September 23, 2023
Join us at the Donald and Carol Press Pavilion in Egg Harbor for a beautiful night celebrating the visual arts and the work of the Miller Art Museum! Guests will be warmly welcomed with champagne and the music of Harpist Tammy Kazmierczak. Following, the evening will include a farm-to-table seated dinner by Chives of Baileys Harbor, opportunities to connect with and engage and support visual artists, and a lively after-party featuring a curated selection of music from DJ David Watkins of Analog Entertainment and his extensive (and secret) record vault.
The sweeping views of the bay, outstanding sunsets, and modern event space of the Kress will provide the ideal backdrop to highlight the important work of our great institution––the Peninsula’s only art museum! Additional highlights for the evening will include an online silent auction featuring work by a curated group of celebrated Wisconsin artists as well as experiences and products from notable Peninsula establishments, which debuts on Monday, September 11, and is set to run through midnight on Saturday, September 23, 2023.

Art & Treasures Fundraiser
August 5 - 19, 2023
The excitement of finding a once-loved treasure from the Miller Art Museum's Art & Treasures Sale returns in August! This year's fundraiser is scheduled to open to the public on Saturday, August 5, 2023. Each year, the Miller Art Museum inspires thousands through dynamic exhibitions and educational programming for people of all ages.
This annual fundraiser now in its 18th year—a pillar of the Museum’s fundraising efforts—is a marriage between an estate and yard sale with a focus on art and art-related items. Patrons will discover a treasure trove of gently used original art, prints, and posters by notable Door County and regional artists, art books, pottery, sculpture, collectibles, art supplies, frames, textiles, small furniture items, musical instruments, kitsch, china, jewelry, accessories, housewares, unique holiday items and more.
Please join in supporting the Miller Art Museum as we raise vital funds to ensure the continued presence of the visual arts in downtown Sturgeon Bay and to help secure the museum's future! See below for guidelines for donations of gently used artwork and goods or use the Give Lively link to the right to support the museum directly with a financial gift.
