Family & Teacher Experiences

Taste for the Arts Auction
Several of our auction items are sold as experiences and are available to multiple people (either as a larger experience to bid on with a group OR through the purchase of individual tickets) 

What Are Family & Teacher Experiences?
Each year, parents, caregivers, and teachers volunteer to host creative parties or experiences to help raise funds for our school! Whether you host an experience or attend one, they are also a great way to meet other L-T families!

How Does It Work?
​The host(s) determine how many people they can accommodate for a specific activity. Attendees can be adults-only, kids-only, or families. The hosts cover the event expenses and 100% of the funds raised benefit Ludlow-Taylor. 

Events do NOT need to be elaborate or expensive to host! For example, a family might host a themed dinner at their home—and other families join together to bid on it at the auction. Some experiences are ticketed. For example, 2 caregivers might host a get-together to do yoga in the park with some snacks with 25 tickets available for purchase. 

How Do I Get Started?
  1. Brainstorm the type of event or activity you want to host! Confirm the number of people you can accommodate.
  2. Fill out our sign-up form​ so we can add your event & discuss possible dates.
  3. Make plans to cover the costs of the event as your contribution to the auction. (All of your expenses are tax-deductible, btw!)
  4. We’ll handle the logistics of adding your event to the website & promoting it as part of Warriors' Night Out.
  5. Host your event! Meet new Ludlow-Taylor families & have a wonderful time for a good cause!

​Need Ideas for An Event or Experience?

We've assembled a few creative ideas in this Google doc for potential Family Experiences. Hopefully, these will get your creative juices flowing!

Take one of these ideas and run with it or come up with something completely new. The sky's the limit, and all ideas and offerings are welcome!  

Contact us with questions or to sign up to host an Family Experience!
