Art & Experience Auction

We are looking for art and experiences for our annual Art and Experience Auction! Pieces can be your original creation, something in your collection that you want to donate, or a fun experience you would like to offer.

Transforming Lives

“Without MTM, I don’t know where I would be, but definitely not in the great position I am now socially, economically, spiritually, and physically,” said Sidney. “There isn’t anything they fall short of in meeting guests’ needs.”

Sidney
