Middleburg Montessori School announces it's holding it's 11th annual Art of the Piedmont Charity auction on Friday evening, May 20th, 2022, 6 to 8pm at Slater Run Vineyards, 1500 Crenshaw Road, Upperville, VA in the spectacularly beautiful Piedmont countryside.

​

The event raises financial support for Middleburg Montessori School and provides a forum for many local talented artists in the area. Art of the Piedmont volunteers have been working on modernizing and adding fun features to help celebrate this, the 11th year auction, which coincides with Middleburg Montessori School’s 41st year of operation. In keeping with last year's Covid friendly platform we will once again offer a week-long virtual auction via Better World for eager bidders and “out of towners” or those who are unable to attend in person. Early bidding will be a week long event virtually beginning Friday May 13th, 2022 and continuing into our in person Gallery Friday May 20th, 2022, 6:00-8:00 PM.

​

The Auction Reception will feature works of fine art by a talented, professional group of local artists, and the proceeds will be divided evenly between the Middleburg Montessori School and the artists, thus supporting both the school’s nonprofit mission and the local art community. Slater Run Vineyards is opening areas of its beautifully renovated winery to give guests of the event a personal and one time only experience only provided at Art of the Piedmont. Ticket price is all inclusive with Slater Run wine that will compliment our palate pleasing appetizers provided by The Catering Company. The delicious and beautiful menu was hand selected for its most delicious and crowd pleasing diversity including but not limited to local farm fresh pork and beef, seafood, caviar and vegetarian options.

The Art of the Piedmont has been raising financial support for Middleburg Montessori School for 11 years. Thanks to the determination and dedication of a few parents and local community members, Art of the Piedmont was an idea turned reality that has continued to grow support for this 501(c)(3) non-profit school. Middleburg Montessori School has been serving families in our community for 41 years and uses these funds in an effort to serve as many children as possible, all while meeting each and every child’s developmental needs. Last year we had a record breaking event that brought in $40,000. Due to these unprecedented times, our community support has increased 20% as we continue to provide financial aid to 52% of our students. The Art of the Piedmont has raised over $212,000 for the school while supporting our local artists and community the past 11 years.

Come out and show support to a wonderful cause and have a fabulous evening in the countryside.
