Sitka Music
Festival, now entering its 53rd season, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation with
a mission of providing the finest classical music experience in Alaska through
performance and education. Under the direction of Grammy-winning Artistic
Director Zuill Bailey, Sitka Music Festival brings acclaimed classical
musicians from around the world to perform in Alaska. To date, SMF has brought
performances to 42 Alaskan communities, and our most recent season featured
three Grammy-winning classical musicians.
Annually, Sitka Music Festival presents approximately 80 events and serves over 6,000 Alaskans. Almost half of our programmed events are community centered and free to the public. These include school visits that serve over 1000 Alaskan students each year, retirement home visits, pop-up concerts, audience education events, and a lunch-series.
The proceeds of this auction will directly support our operations budget in furthering our mission. Thank you for your support!
Got a Question? Please See Below!
Q: Where did all these items come from?
A: Most of these items, experiences, and memberships are generous donations to the Sitka Music Festival, a registered 501 (c)(3) non profit corporation to help us raise funds in meeting our mission of providing the finest classical music experience in Alaska through performance and education.
Q: Are the items in good shape?
A: Each physical item has been examined and is in good shape. While shipping is not included, if you choose to arrange to have us ship an item after the option, the Sitka Music Festival will not be responsible for any damages to that item during shipping.
Q: Is there a "Buy it Now" option for the items I want?
A: Yes! And, our lowest allowable bid is the reserve.
Q: How is postage calculated?
A: We prefer to arrange pick up if possible, but if you need to have an item shipped, we will arrange that cost with you after the auction. The buyer will be responsible for any shipping costs.
Q: Can I return items?
A: No. All sales are final. (But we think you will be pleased!)
Q: How can I share more information about an item in your auction (or let you know about a mistake in your description)?
A: Please send us a message! We have described every item to the best of our ability. If you know the history of a particular piece, or you see an error, please let us know and we will update the listing.
Q: Will you hold another auction?
A: Hopefully! This is the first time we've tried this, and we'll have to see how it goes.
Q: I have another question that's not answered here. Who can I contact?
A: Please send us a message through this site or to director@sitkamusicfestival.org. We will be watching our inbox carefully and will respond as soon as possible. Please be patient -- this auction is mostly being managed by volunteers who have day jobs. We are as excited about this auction as you are, and we're eager to answer questions and help "rehome" these treasures with people who will love them as much as we do!
Good luck, and thank you for bidding!
