Collection: Christmas Appeal Auction

Welcome to Scottish Book Trust’s first-ever Christmas Appeal Auction! Below you’ll find a selection of artworks generously donated by the brilliant artists we collaborate with year-round. These artists and illustrators help us to share books and stories with children and families all over Scotland through their creative work and beyond. All proceeds will support our Christmas Appeal, helping children and families to access the magic of books.  

The Auction will open at 9AM on Wednesday 19th November 2025 and close at 9PM on Wednesday 3rd December 2025.
