What items should I get?

We are asking each family to donate or solicit at least 3 auction items. Your participation is key to our auction's success.

Here are some ideas:

  • Art: photographs, paintings, jewelry, ceramics, sculpture, etc.
  • Art experiences: a private walk through MOMA, a private tour with an artist, chef, performer, a private concert, etc.
  • Restaurant Certificates
  • Hotels, Bed & Breakfast Inns, vacation homes, getaways
  • Limousine, airplane, train, and balloon rides
  • Tours and trips: skiing, whale watching, sailing, oceanic expeditions, etc.
  • Gift certificates for clothing stores, flowers, toy stores, housewares, etc.
  • Wine, gourmet baskets, chocolates, truffles
  • Group dinners, activities.  Try putting things together in your neighborhood like a lunch and movie on Sacramento Street, a museum tour at MOMA ending with a spa treatment at Bliss, dinner and shopping on Union Street, etc.
