Mispillion Art League seeks support for its upcoming special events.

Now is the time for artists to pick up canvases for the annual 6x6 silent auction to be held in June. Beginners to advanced artists, MAL members and nonmembers all are welcome to participate. Each artist will be given one 6-by-6-inch canvas free with the option to purchase up to three more for $2 each. Once creations are complete, they can be donated to MAL by Saturday, June 4. Bidding will start Tuesday, June 7, concluding with a reception when final bids can be made from 6 to 8 p.m., Saturday, June 25, at 5 N. Walnut St., Milford.

The art league’s fourth annual yard sale fundraiser is set for 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., Friday and Saturday, May 27 and 28. Donations will be accepted from Sunday, May 1 to Tuesday, May 24. For details on acceptable items for donation, go to mispillionarts.org/special-events.

In conjunction with the sale, Jerry’s Artarama of Newark will hold a mini trade show with art supplies offered at great prices. Patrons can place orders in advance and pick them up at the sale in Milford.
