The event is a garden party which will be run at 57 Bohnock Road, Bohnock on Sunday, May 19 from 11am to 3pm.
It is the fourth annual event on this beautiful riverside site.
The auction, under the hammer of well-known local auctioneer Bruce Moy, will include works by painter Yvette Hugill and her partner, potter Peter Hugill.
Yvette won last year's Pacific Palms art prize and also the Taree Open prize. They have just completed very successful joint exhibitions at Manning Regional Art Gallery and in Gloucester.
