The Artists Against Antisemitism auction has ended and we not only met our goal of raising $100,008 for Project Shema, but we beat it!
Thank you to everyone who donated an item, who bid or shared or made a donation. (It’s not too late if you still want to make a donation, just visit bit.ly/KeepTheLightGoing23) Thank you for making this event a success so we can keep the light going.
We are doing something about the rise in antisemitism. Together.
By raising funds, building awareness, creating community, facilitating communication, supporting organizations, and creatively inspiring others, we will make a difference. Join us.

Our First Initiative
Online auction and fundraiser
December 15th - 22nd
In the wake of the October 7th attack in Israel, we have seen acts of antisemitism skyrocket right here in the United States, especially on college campuses. We believe the best way to stop hate is to spread light, and with your help, that’s exactly what we’re hoping to do.
We’re launching an online auction with unique items and experiences from a diverse group of artists.
Proceeds raised from this auction will support Project Shema, an organization that’s committed to building bridges through understanding. With our donation, they’lll be able to subsidize essential training on select college campuses to help students understand anti-Jewish harm and allyship in this difficult moment.
The auction will be held online, starting the last night of Chanukah, December 15th. Bidding will remain open for one week to “keep the light going,” ending on Friday, December 22nd.
We are asking our friends—Jewish and Non-Jewish—to help us stand against hate by donating an item or a service to the auction. The donations can be anything you want from a signed copy of your book to a 30-minute zoom-meet-and-greet, to concert or theater tickets, anything you can think of. The more unique the item, the better chance it will help us drum up excitement and money for this important cause.
We’re accepting items until end of day Monday, December 11th.
Thank you for standing with us against hate.
