Mad Hatter Art & Design Auction
The Mad Hatter Art & Design Auction returns to The Branch for its signature spring fundraiser! Guests arrive in their most imaginative hats and bid on a curated collection of works from artists around the country, along with exclusive experiences, all in support of the museum’s exhibitions and programs. The full collection of auction items will be on view in the galleries beginning in early April, offering the chance to preview favorites ahead of the live auction. The coveted Milliner’s Award will once again honor the evening’s most inventive hat.
