September 11, 2025

From: Dare County Arts Council

Presented by TowneBank

Dare Arts’ benefit art auction, The Great Art Heist, will open at its Gallery in downtown Manteo on Friday, October 3 at 6:00pm.

The opening reception will include libations, hors d'oeuvres and live jazz music by Devin Frazier and Ed Tupper. The reception is in conjunction with Manteo’s First Friday festivities and is free and open to everyone.

“The Great Art Heist, now in its 6th year, has become one of Dare Arts' most anticipated events,” said Dare Arts Gallery Director Lynne Francis. “Coupled with our 50th anniversary, we know this year's auction is going to be spectacular.”

The Great Art Heist is a silent art auction, featuring the work of local and regional artists, that guests can bid on in person and on Dare Arts’ website.

Artists willing to donate a piece of artwork or a performing arts experience to The Great Art Heist can email Dare Arts Exhibitions Director Tiffany Lindsey at DareArtsShows@gmail.com to coordinate details. Your support is deeply appreciated.

The Great Art Heist will be open for bidding in person at the Dare Arts Gallery and online from October 3 through October 23.

New for this year only, there will be a special countdown to close out The Great Art Heist Benefit Art Auction at Dare Arts’ 50th Birthday pARTy at The Waterfront Trellis in Manteo on Thursday, October 23.

"Watching the final furious bids come in during the last moments of The Great Art Heist is always an exciting time,” said Dare Arts Executive Director Jessica Sands. “Please consider joining us at the pARTy to not only celebrate the closing of the auction, but also everything that Dare Arts has accomplished over the past 50 years!"

Final bids must be in by 8:00pm on Thursday, October 23.
