The Lighthouse Auction is the Newburyport Education Foundation’s largest event of the year, raising over $100,000 that goes directly to the Newburyport Public Schools!

The 2020 Annual Lighthouse Auction presented by the Institution for Savings will be held on Saturday, November 7, 2020.

All proceeds from this year’s event will support the Newburyport Education Foundation’s 2020 Campaigns:
