Skill Share Auction
What is a skill share auction?
The skill share silent auction puts a spin on a traditional silent auction—instead of bidding on things, bid on “skill shares,” or quality time you’ll spend learning fun and interesting skills from fellow community members. Each skill will be auctioned off in a silent auction, and the winners will get to spend quality time with someone learning a great skill, from pickling to flying a plane.
