Artisans for Ataxia

A virtual art auction that showcases original, handcrafted works to raise funds and awareness for Ataxia.

Artisans for Ataxia is a vibrant online auction that brings together artists and supporters to fuel progress in the fight against Ataxia. This annual event features one-of-a-kind creations—from paintings and ceramics to fiber art, jewelry, and more—donated by talented makers from across the country. We are seeking artists from the community to contribute their art. 

The 2026 auction will take place from October 8–11, with all proceeds supporting NAF’s mission to accelerate treatment development and improve the lives of those living with this rare, degenerative brain disease. Whether you’re a creator, a collector, or simply inspired to help, Artisans for Ataxia is your chance to make a meaningful impact through art.
