Take Flight 2026 Auction

Medium - 30 inch butterfly. 

Butterflies and rainbows are fleeting reminders of life’s magical moments. Each in its’ own way, a message of hope and encouragement. Kermit, the frog, sings about the Rainbow Connection as a symbolic path to find our place in the world: a magical link between our deepest aspirations and understanding the reality of life. He encourages us to seek a shared human connection and promises that magic does exist for those who dare to look for it. “The lovers, the dreamers and me”.
