After a successful pivot from a traditional live auction to a virtual auction which raised more than $84,000 in 2020, Friends of Downtown Hendersonville will continue with a virtual bidding format this year. Bidders will be able to participate in the auction remotely and even submit bids via text message over the course of 30 days.

To celebrate the final hours of the auction, the public is invited to a countdown event on October 16 at the Historic Train Depot Plaza (650 Maple Street) from 4 pm until 6:30 pm. Attendees and bidders will meet the bears while enjoying live music, beer, wine, and food trucks. The event hosts, Lew Holloway and Bryan B² Byrd, will guide participants through the evening, announcing incoming bids amid lively commentary.
