I've been working on the catalog for this and I'm BLOWN AWAY by the amount of wonderful items that are up for bid! Everyone who is able should drop by Seth Boyden on Saturday and check out the Silent or Live auction.
You just may walk away with an amazing vacation rental, facial, babysitting service or a dinner in NYC for a BARGAIN bid!
