On April 2, 2022, the Zootown Arts Community Center (ZACC) will celebrate its 10th Annual Mini Show Benefit Auction in the newly renovated Commercial Building at the Missoula County Fairgrounds. For our beloved Mini Show's 10-year anniversary, we've secured this giant, beautifully updated space in order to share the celebration with everyone who has helped us achieve this milestone. The 2022 Mini Show will be the most accessible Mini Show ever, both for attendees and for folks unable to make it. Artists who choose to donate 100% of sales will be offered two second floor gallery tickets (dinner not included), or one first floor dinner ticket. Please reserve tickets early. Artists who choose to donate 75% or 50% of sales will be offered one second floor gallery ticket (dinner not included). We will continue using our new online auction platform (so the silent auction will be accessible to anyone – whether they attend or not).

This live gala event will be a true celebration of the past 10 years, and will include live entertainment from a cast composed of longtime supporters and new friends, a silent and live auction, a cash bar, a catered dinner, a dessert auction, and more! The Mini Show is the ZACC's largest fundraising event of the year. Art donations made to the Mini Show support year-round arts programming and education for the Missoula community and its visitors. With your help, we hope this year will boast the most incredible catalog of local and regional art yet!
