Dead Darlings 12½ — The Show Must Go On!
Gerrit Rietveld Academie fundraiser and online auction
This edition, caught us off guard. In the heat of July and in the midst of the cultural standstill due to the pandemic, we received a call for help from the student support group of the Rietveld Academy, asking if we would consider helping them put together a fundraiser for all their international students who were stranded, or students other-wise challenged by the ongoing corona virus rules and regulations. Even though the timeline was super tight, and we had never put together an online auction before, we could not refuse!
Dead Darlings in collaboration with the Student Support Group and the Academy, invited all graduating students to present us with a “dead darling” that didn’t make the cut to their end-exam, and donate it to help fellow students. The response was very good, and the auction was successful, raising a good sum in support of the student community. We also got our first experience with putting together an online auction, and despite the fact that we missed having our live event, we had to get inventive in order to infuse the auction as much as possible with the energy and humor of our live events.
