Trunk sale for art? Basically the idea is to get a group of artists that have premades that have been sitting for awhile in their shops that are not really selling, or new artists that don't have a ton of exposure to sorta put them on the map. It's not as structured as an auction because it has multiple themes so it's more collectic, the idea isn't really to be an auction but it could be, might be simpler to just have a flat price. You can hype up the event prior so people are aware of it (mostly so they can have money when the time comes). My personal opinion, I like to know about auctions or events that require money ahead of time. Summer slumber party / Bundle up Tuesdays / Flashback Fridays, basically just more movie nights it could be chick flick, comedy, action, etc. I always find it fun to join in on the movie days when you guys have them and it's really easy but it relies on the mods schedules, maybe get a trusted mod assistant to also help stream in case a mod gets tired or something happens? I'm not too sure how that would work. You don't always have to provide an reward such as a badge, it could just be for fun. Maybe an event that focuses on the members talents, being taught a talent, or somewhere in between? Say you have a green thumb, you can show an easy way to take care of eucalyptus plant. If you are into sewing, you can show someone how to make a bag. If you are super skilled in video games, you can take a group of newbies under your wing and show them how to play. Showing someone how to make jewelry or cook, what recipes you use or love. I'm sure there are tons of family recipes because we are all diverse and come from different parts of the world. Sharing your passions with the community and also opening up common interests so it helps interactions and brings more people to be active. I know it doesn't guarantee members to be more active but it's nice for people who are more introverted that you have something in common before talking, know that people who are participating are friendly, and are open to making new friends. Auction themed around different planets/galaxies, black & white, drawing in a different style, favorite movies/music, fan art, eras, favorite Disney movies, different cultures, different alcohol beverages, comic book styles, get inspired by different cities / countries, architecture(more of an inspiration on what that person would be based on how the buildings are built), or fashion trends that you love. Sweater Weather, use a template of a sweater and allow everyone to color or redesign / do anything they want and allow members to vote on which sweater they like the most (Fall / Winter) Pumpkin Spice challenge, you can get members to spot pumpkin spice anywhere(not on the internet) and the most unique item will win? (Fall / Winter) Online games are always a fun option, Scribble, Scrabble, Overwatch, League, World of Warcraft, Ark, Minecraft, Raft, Stardew Valley, Tera, etc. (These are just suggestions, I know that there are some off topic threads.) I'm not sure how realistic these ideas are but I thought it was worth a shot.
