Art, Surf, and Sound Collide at the ArtReach Charity Auction

Surfboards, skateboards, and guitars as canvases? You got it! ArtReach San Diego is back with its annual Charity Art Auction, and it’s easily one of the most creative ways to support arts education across the region.

Partnering with Mission Fed ArtWalk, ArtReach invited 25 local artists to transform donated surfboards, skate decks, and Baby Taylor guitars into one-of-a-kind works of art. The result? A visually striking and wildly creative collection of pieces that showcase a variety of mediums—paint, mosaic, gold foil, tape, and more.

Each item is up for auction, with proceeds directly supporting free and low-cost visual arts programs in local schools and community spaces across San Diego County.

Bid Online or Catch the Collection in Person

Want to own a piece of art that supports a great cause? The full collection is available to view and bid online now.

The artist lineup includes Mission Fed ArtWalk Featured Artists Kate Joiner and LaMonte Lamoureux, alongside ArtReach mural collaborators Josué Baltézar, Katy Yeaw, and Regan Russell, among others.

This is your chance to support local talent, arts education, and maybe even take home something that reflects San Diego’s creative spirit.

See you there!

Support San Diego’s next generation of creatives and bring home a one-of-a-kind piece that speaks to your love of surf, art, and community at the ArtReach Charity Art Auction.

📆 Online auction open now through April 30
📍 India Street, Little Italy, San Diego
