Each year during the National Junior Angus Show, the Angus Foundation hosts a silent auction, featuring a variety of items available for Angus families and friends to bid on and purchase. The items sold at the silent auction are donated by state junior and adult Angus associations, and individual farms and corporations. The state junior Angus association that donates the highest-selling item to the silent auction will receive $250 for its association. Individual donations to the silent auction are accepted. Proceeds from the silent auction go to the Angus Foundation, which supports education, youth and research activities of the American Angus Association^®.  

Items for the auction are accepted year-round. If you are interested in donating an item, please contact us.  

The 2026 Angus Foundation Silent Auction will take place July 13th – 17th, 2026, at the National Junior Angus Show in Louisville, KY. The auction will close on Friday, July 17th at 5:00 p.m. Online bidding will be offered through AngusLive.
