Join us in supporting Murphy Writing at Stockton University’s Noyes Museum of Art and our upcoming Winter Poetry & Prose Getaway, taking place January 15–18, 2027, at Seaview in Galloway, New Jersey.

Murphy Writing is dedicated to fostering creativity, building community, and providing meaningful opportunities for writers of all backgrounds and experience levels to develop their craft.

As a nonprofit initiative, Murphy Writing events are self-funded through participant registration fees and the generosity of donors and community partners. These contributions help us sustain our programs, offer accessible literary experiences, and continue bringing writers together through workshops, retreats, and special events.

Every bid makes a difference! Proceeds from this silent auction will support Murphy Writing’s programs and help us continue creating opportunities for writers to learn, connect, and be inspired.

Browse the wonderful auction items generously donated by our community partners and place your bids in support of the literary arts!
