🦅🎨 Bring a piece of AU joy home! 💜💛

One of the special items featured in the AU Homecoming Online Auction is "Next Gen Tuffy Fans," an original acrylic painting by Ashland alum Robin Meade ’91, longtime former anchor of “Morning Express with Robin Meade” on HLN

Inspired by the simple joy of two young fans cheering on the Eagles, Robin captures not only a moment of AU spirit, but the promise of the next generation of Eagles.

✨ Next Gen Tuffy Fans
🎨 Original acrylic on canvas
📏 40" x 30"
🖼️ Black metal frame + Certificate of Authenticity included
📍 Painted in Roswell, Georgia, in 2026

And there’s an even greater purpose behind the piece. Proceeds from the auction will help support initiatives, helping future Eagles discover their own AU friendships, mentors and opportunities.

As Robin shared: “By bidding on this painting, you are invited to not only take some AU joy home with you but also help another student find theirs!” 💜💛

🦅 Place your bid and take home a one-of-a-kind piece of AU history while helping make an AU education possible for the next generation.
