Art Auction

The 2025 Island Art Auction was held on Friday August 15, at the Crew's Nest. Viewing will begin at 4 pm with the live auction starting at 6 pm.

We are currently working on updating this page with the 2025 auction items as soon as possible. Until then, please feel free to look at last years items.

Artists used wood from an ash tree at the Cliff House. The overall theme is Put-in-Bay and/or Lake Erie Island related.

We will add images of the available artwork as it comes into the museum. All proceeds from the auction benefit the historical society museum, a 501(c)3 non-profit.
