CONSIGNMENT GUIDELINES

  • Low consignment rates. 92% of auction lots sold in 2022. 86% of auction lots sold in 2023.

  • Only works by historic (deceased) artists are eligible for the auction.

  • All artwork submitted for auction consignment must be received by March 9, 2024 and will be reviewed by the RAA&M Auction Committee to determine acceptance. This is to ensure a varied and interesting auction.

  • Artwork may be submitted in person by appointment only. For consignors who do not live nearby, digital images and information may be submitted via email as a first step to determine our interest prior to making delivery arrangements.

  • The RAA&M receives a minimum of 10% of the hammer price for all works that sell for $1,000 and over and a minimum of 20% of the hammer price for all works that sell for under $1,000. We encourage consignors to donate a larger percentage, as this is a very important RAA&M fundraiser. Full donations of paintings are greatly appreciated.

  • For artwork that is included in the auction, consignors have the option of setting a reserve (minimum price). Any reserves must be at or below the low end of the estimate range set by the RAA&M Auction Committee.
