The Original Art Expo’s Saturday Night Art Auction and Pizza Party will begin at 5:30pm EST and will be hosted by Jimmy Palmiotti and Nick Barrucci. We anticipate roughly 80 Artwork lots to bid on, which will include artworks contributed by each Artist exhibiting at OAX. Proxy Bidding for posted artworks is underway and will continue until 11:59pm EST on January 22. While 30 lots have been posted to start the proxy bidding, additional pieces will be posted throughout the week, with several more being revealed on Tuesday!
The OAX Auction is also a benefit auction for the Hero Initiative, who support comic book creators in their time of need. ALL pieces in the auction will have anywhere between 10-60% of their sales going directly to Hero, and there will be many pieces designated as having 100% of sales going to Hero.

Jimmy Palmiotti and Nick Barrucci are co-hosting this event. If you don’t want to immediately pay for and take your auction winnings we will allow up to 60 days to complete payments on most artworks purchased during the auction with an appropriate down payment, with OAX handling the shipping of the artworks at an additional cost once the time payment has been completed. OAX will also ship artworks for those collectors that would prefer to not travel with their art purchases, for an additional shipping fee.
