Artopia features both silent auctions, and a rousing live auction at the end of the evening. But you don’t need to be an art connoisseur to enjoy this lively event! As a matter of fact, there’s just about something for everyone—beautiful art at a reasonable price—in just about every form you can think of! Last year, Artopia featured more than 400 pieces of art! In addition to all of the artwork, local businesses and individuals donate gift certificates or other goodies that you can bid on. This event is free, and you can see more details about donating, sponsoring, and supporting through attendance here.
Why I joined the Chamber
“The Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce has always been here serving the business community. I think it’s important for business owners and managers in Tallahassee to really look at all of the new services the Chamber is providing that especially new businesses. The Business Advocacy Committee over the last few years has lead the charge on every major public policy issue the community has faced. With the BAC’s efforts, the business community is on the front end of discussions helping to lead direction and provide facts instead of waiting for things to happen. We owe the Chamber a lot of kudos for their proactive focus.”
