EUGENE, OR. — The 10th annual So Small: Miniature Art Auction is a free event and silent auction of donated artwork for Radiant Community Arts (Radiant), formerly known as the Oregon Supported Living Program (OSLP) Arts & Culture Center. All proceeds will go to Radiant Community Arts to help cover the cost of class registration fees for participants with limited income as well as other programming needs.

Last year, the event displayed over 700 pieces of tiny art made by artists locally and across the country. Patrons went home with one of a kind 2D and 3D art including jewelry, sculptures, boxes, magnets, and tiny canvases to decorate their spaces. It is an affordable way to purchase handmade artwork, with bids starting at just $2. So Small 2024 raised almost $5,500 to support inclusive art classes in our community.
