2026 VAM Conference Silent Auction Donation Form
Don't miss this opportunity to showcase your extraordinary products, services and support the Virginia Association of Museums at the same time!

The very popular silent auction is BACK and we're looking to make it better than EVER!! Proceeds from the auction support VAM activities, fund scholarships, and support our members across the Commonwealth and the District of Colombia.

Please consider a donation to the silent auction in the lead up to the annual conference! Past donations include tickets and experiences, trips and events, product packages from our museum stores, individual products or fun packaged items! Think outside the box, the more fun or interesting the donation, the higher the bids will be!

Your items and experiences will be featured in the exhibit hall during the 2026 VAM Annual Conference in Williamsburg, Virginia, March 14-17 2026.
