About
Get ready to roll the dice on an unforgettable evening! Nichols School is excited to announce that our annual Nichols Night Auction will take place on Saturday, May 2, 2026, and we’re going all-in with a Casino Night theme.
This years event, chaired by Drs. Mark ’93 & Maansi Travers P’26, ‘28 and Paul & Jessica Brown P’26, will be held in the Class of 1961 Student Commons, and we anticipate a night full of games, good times, and giving.
As the school’s largest fundraising event, Nichols Night plays a vital role in supporting our students and maintaining the exceptional educational experience Nichols is known for. Every dollar raised — 100% of proceeds — directly benefits Nichols students, impacting academic programming, arts, athletics, and campus initiatives.

GIFT GATHERING KICK-OFF
A Gift Gathering Party is where families come together to support Nichols by donating an item for our upcoming Auction. There’s no cost to attend as your “ticket” is simply bringing a gift for the Auction! These casual, social get-togethers are a nice way to connect with fellow parents, alumni, and friends — all while contributing to the success of our biggest fundraising event of the year.
