Join us for an unforgettable evening of art, music and community beneath the starts at the Buccaneer Hotel and Resort.

The Ruff Start STX Art Auction brings together local artists, animal lovers and supporters for a night that celebrates creativity and compassion to support Ruff Start STX Underdog Rescue which helps homeless dogs on St. Croix find safe and loving homes.

Enjoy live music by Gyasi Clarke, a wonderful buffet dinner provided by the Buccaneer as well as an open bar supported by our generous sponsors of Ruff Start STX.

Browse an inspired collection of original artwork, handcrafted pieces and island experiences. All are available through our silent auction, powered by Give Butter.

Every bid makes a difference, every dollar raised goes directly towards veterinary care, food, shelter and transport for our island dogs in need.

Bidding opens on Monday, November 17th at 10:00 am and closes on Friday, November 22nd at 9:15 pm during the live event.

Place your bids from anywhere, on your phone, tablet or computer. Highest bidders will be notified when the auction ends on November 22nd.

And if you can't attend in person, you can still participate online or making a donation through this site. Your support, whether through art, time or contribution, helps Ruff Start STX continue their life saving work across St. Croix.

Thank you for being part of our island community and for helping us create new beginnings for dogs who need them most.

Together, we're turning art into action and compassion into change!
