Our House – Midnight at the Oasis!

On Saturday, February 19th, 2011, the Portland Art Museum will come alive with magic and wonder, as Benefit Auctions 360 gathers in support of Our House of Portland during their 2011 auction and event - Midnight at the Oasis!


Our House has been part of the Portland community since 1988 – providing healthcare, housing, and other vital services to low-income people living with HIV/AIDS. Day in and day out, Our House of Portland is guided by compassion, inspiring people with HIV/AIDS to live well.

Event Chairs Gary Maffei and Marc Lintner are back again for another fantastic year, showcasing not only their phenomenal and heartfelt support for Our House, but also their creative eye and comic flair!  For one spectacular night, the Portland Art Museum will be transformed into an Arabian Oasis, complete with libations, live music, and of course a Live Auction, featuring Benefit Auctions 360′s auctioneer Johnna Wells.

This year’s auction is made complete with seventeen supremely sensational Live Auction packages! Here’s a snap shot of a few of the packages that are up for auction:

  • A Five-Star Cruise through the Tahitian Islands!
  • An 8 day stay at Village Paradiso on Bali’s tranquil eastern coast! An idyllic Eat Pray Love- esque retreat for up to 8 people!
  • A French Provincial Escape to the Chateauneuf du Pape! Located in Provence, France, this one week getaway will be an epic vacation for four people!
  • A six night South African Safari for two very lucky bidders! Complete with deluxe accommodations, three delicious African meals prepared daily, and viewing expeditions in an open-air rover through the Zulu Nyala reserve!
