A five-time Olympian and 10-time World Champion, Knight's impact spans the globe and the professional ranks. This jersey is a tribute to her leadership as the inaugural captain of the Seattle Torrent and her pivotal role in launching the Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL).

Accompanied by an original poem printed as a fine art giclee on Canson Arches Aquarelle Rag paper, 8.3x11.1 in. in a gold aluminum ArtBox frame with a 0.39" profile. My Dear unfolds through a sequence of unanswered questions, allowing uncertainty to remain intact. Meaning emerges indirectly-through address, image, and pause-rather than explanation or resolution.

Diane Scrofani is a New York City-based visual poetry artist whose work unites photography and text into a single contemplative form. Each piece begins with an image and concludes in stillness. Her photographs function as sites of pause-holding moments that may be present, remembered, or still approaching.

Scrofani's works are composed in two inseparable forms: photograph and original poem. The image establishes atmosphere; the poem gives shape to what arises within the viewer-memory, longing, grief, calm.
Her writing responds directly to the world each photograph creates, shaped by place, music, and the emotional residue of lived experience.
My Dear was photographed in Islamorada, Florida, a recurring and formative
landscape in Scrofani's practice. Rendered in early light and open horizon, the images inhabit a threshold between departure and return, where time appears suspended.

Love took center stage as Kindergartners explored monochromatic color, using shades and tones of a single hue to create depth. Working with colored pencils, oil pastels, watercolor, and tempera paint, each student created a series of mini works that were combined into a collaborative, heart-filled collage. The final piece reflects both individual expression and a shared sense of joy.

Fourth Grade: Standing Sculpture
This Alberto Giacometti-inspired piece celebrates figurative movement. The fourth grade curriculum has long incorporated a study of gesture drawing, the human figure, and sculpture, and this year it aligned perfectly with the Auction. In addition to each child creating their own miniature version, they also collaborated on this life-sized figure using pool noodles, wire, newspaper, and tape.

Fifth Grade: Cars Painting / Wall Hanging, 20 x 16 inches

Fifth graders were very invested in this grade level project for the Auction. They spent a great deal of time brainstorming and worked to combine as many of their ideas as possible. They ultimately decided on a car theme, and each student received a small car to personalize with spray paint and acrylic.

Sixth Grade: Painting / Wall Hanging, 22 x 30 inches
Inspired by the 1831 Japanese woodblock print The Great Wave off Kanagawa by Hokusai, each sixth grader received a section of the wave composition. Students decided whether to use warm or cool colors to complete their individual squares, which then came together to form one unified work of art. The banner translates to "Class of 2029."

Custom 7th Grade Art

Seventh graders designed and built a gear board using pegboard as the base. Working in groups, they planned gear size and spacing so the pieces would connect and function together. Their designs were laser-cut, sanded, and spray painted before being attached to the pegboard with bolts. Students refined placement and alignment, testing their gears to ensure they meshed properly and moved smoothly. The final piece is a collaborative gear board.

Eighth Grade: Painting, 48 x 60-inch Stretched Canvas
Creative eighth graders collaborated on a project that blends art and innovation, using stencil work to commemorate their portraits. Students worked within a blue and silver palette, layering X and O marks across the canvas to create a dynamic background. They were photographed in class, then used Adobe Photoshop to posterize their portraits and transform them into stencils. Using the laser cutter in the Innovation Center, all 36 students were incorporated into the final composition.

Ninth Grade: Painting, Nine Rearrangeable 24 x 24-inch Squares
Ninth graders were inspired by a social media post featuring an artist building up texture with flexible modeling paste. Excited to continue exploring the theme of momentum, they designed imagery across nine square canvases. They used this medium along with laser-cut stencils to build layered surfaces and achieve their desired textured effects.
