The Crucible’s 2023 Fire & Light Soirée and Art Auction
The Crucible’s Annual Fire & Light Soirée and Art Auction returns to West Oakland this spring. Join us for an unforgettable evening full of delicious food, craft cocktails, fiery demonstrations, captivating performances, and a live auction featuring luxury experiences and stunning work by local artists.
Your support will help us raise over $250,000 and ensure that, in the coming year, all young people have access to The Crucible’s Industrial Arts Program, regardless of background or income.
Our Fire & Light Soirée celebrates the transformative power of making and creative risk-taking. It is an occasion to recognize and pay tribute to the people who inspire us and help to safeguard the future of arts education in our community. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
Stay tuned for updates on ticket sales, entertainment, and auction items.
