InLiquid’s annual benefit and art auction is a two-week-long celebration of creativity, creators, and collectors.  Culminating in an online auction of contemporary works of art by more than 200 local artists who work across all media. Unlike many charity auctions, the proceeds from March for Art are split evenly between InLiquid and the participating artists as a way of directly supporting the artists. Collectors can discover new works while giving back across the creative economy.

March for Art Shop

The March for Art Shop transforms InLiquid’s gallery space into a curated retail experience featuring art jewelry, handcrafted homewares, and clothing created by local artisans and craftspeople. With a wide array of available goods, the March for Art Shop allows visitors to learn about and support Philly-area craftspeople working across disciplines.

Unlike the auction, visitors can take home their purchased items when they leave the gallery. The entire inventory is also available for purchase online!
