Burning River Roller Derby (BRRD) invites you attend its fifth annual art auction fundraiser, celebrating five wonderful years of art and roller derby! A silent auction will feature artwork created especially for this event by local artists and current and past members of BRRD. While the artwork ranges in style and genre, the theme for the evening is totally masquerade. Dance, drink, and bid in your favorite costumes or masks. Masquerade music and entertainment by DJ Bonk. Light refreshments will be provided and drink tickets will be available for purchase (ID required). Admission is free for all ages. For a limited time during the evening, our very own Marshmallow Scream will be doing Tarot Card Readings! You can also preview the art work at the Good Goat Gallery April 10th through the 13th, but you must be present for the masquerade to make a bid! Proceeds from the auction will directly benefit Burning River Roller Derby, Cleveland’s premier flat track roller derby league. BRRD is owned and operated by skaters, referees, and volunteers who provide athletic training and public gaming opportunities for northeast Ohio. BRRD's operating revenue is based on member dues, sales from public bouts, sponsorships, and fundraisers. All revenue goes directly toward providing athletic opportunities by providing rental space, training, and bout production; all league operations are performed by volunteers. The league is a member of the international Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA).
