Contribute an Auction Item and Help Us "Cue the Confetti"

CONTRIBUTE & CONNECT with our audience of Austin's philanthropists, community and business leaders, and passionate arts patrons.

We're throwing confetti this season, and for good reason: Maestro's Dream 2027 celebrates Maestro Peter Bay's 30th and final season leading the Austin Symphony Orchestra. It's a milestone worth celebrating in style, and your generous auction donation helps us throw a party big enough to match it, while fueling the ASO's mission to bring live orchestral music to our community, support music education programs, and create unforgettable performances across Central Texas.

Auction items like yours are the moments that get the whole room buzzing. Whether you're contributing exclusive experiences, fine art, luxury goods, or one-of-a-kind treasures, your donation will captivate bidders and spark excitement throughout the evening. The most successful auction items combine compelling descriptions, professional photography, and details that help guests envision themselves enjoying your gift.

What We Need From You:

• A vivid description that brings your item to life
• Estimated fair market value
• High-quality photos 
• Any restrictions, expiration dates, or special details
• Your preferred recognition name/company name
• How to redeem upon winning

Once you submit, our team will reach out to confirm details and coordinate logistics. We'll handle everything from there, so your generous contribution gets the spotlight (and confetti) it deserves.

Your support makes the music, and the celebration, possible. Thank you for helping us send Maestro Bay's final season off in style!

Should you have any questions about your contribution or the gala, please reach out to our Event Coordinator, Chloe Bruns at cbruns@austinsymphony org or development@austinsymphony.org.
