The exclusive Private View & Auction: Drawing a Line under Torture to support Freedom from Torture's work with torture victims, is taking place at Sotheby's in London on Monday 15 November 2021. Tickets are free but space is limited - RSVP here to guarantee your space on the night.

In parallel to the Live auction event, a Silent auction with online bids is open from 1 November until 8.45pm on the night of the live event.  This year's silent auction features a selection of paintings, drawings, sculptures and prints donated by a variety of established and emerging contemporary artists, alongside work by survivors of torture who have benefited from art therapy.
