December 2025 – Annual Auction

Everyone is invited to our annual holiday auction and potluck! Bid
on numerous items of paleontological– and geological– interest,
including books, fossils, fossil replicas, minerals, art, and much
more. Enjoy potluck refreshments. (Bring a dish to share if you’d
like!) The verbal auction later in the afternoon will feature bigger
ticket items. Proceeds benefit WIPS grants and scholarships for
research and education in paleontology.

This year, payments can be made online using a QR code displayed at the auction.
