Who wants to own one of our turtle sculptures? These beautifully curated and uniquely designed turtles will make a wonderful addition to your backyard garden, business, or home. Select turtles on display during Turtley Awesome! will be available through an online auction with a buy-now option for that turtle you just can’t risk losing. In 2022, all 10 rabbits sold quickly, so make sure to plan ahead! The auction opens December 1, 2023 at 9 a.m. and closes December 31, 2023 at 11:45 p.m.
