Piazza de Liberace Modernism Week Silent Auction

Extraordinary items will be auctioned at our special event at Piazza de Liberace, a former home of Liberace in Palm Springs, California. Proceeds benefit the Liberace Foundation for the Performing and Creative Arts, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, in its ongoing operations to preserve the Legacy of Liberace and fund scholarships and grants in the Performing and Creative Arts.

The Liberace Foundation for the Performing and Creative Arts was created by iconic showman Liberace himself, in 1976. He endowed it with the rights to his name, likeness, trademarks and the massive treasure trove of costumes, cars, pianos, jewelry, crystal, fine art, furnishings, recordings, rare letters and documents known as the Liberace Museum Collection. The Foundation manages the endowment assets to create scholarships in the performing and creative arts. Over $6 million has been awarded over 2700 students at over 100 universities since 1981.
