The auction will be held at the Western Star Hotel from 7pm and will feature 12 pieces of artwork.
This includes the work of local Aboriginal artist Sacha Whitehead.
Tickets are $40 and include a two course meal, live music, raffles, trivia and of course the auction.
Gini Redenbach of Hear our Heart organised the event, as she wants to repay the assistance she has received.
"Hear our Heart has helped (my family) a lot, (my husband Ian and I) are now involved with Hear our Heart because we want to give back," she said.
"Three of five of our children have Otitis Media and we want to help others to identify it and prevent it.
"We've been through it and we know what people are going through."
Mr and Mrs Redenbach's daughter Ella was one of the first in Dubbo to be identified with hearing loss through Hear our Hearts hearing tests.
Ella was diagnosed with 30 percent bilateral hearing loss and has been assisted by the group since.
The auction is expected to attract up to 150 people and all funds raised will be matched dollar for dollar by the Rotary Action Group.
Ticketd can be purchased from Hot Poppyz Florist or www.trybooking.com/93031.
