Last year nearly 500 guests raised a record $150,000 for us at the auction. We hope this year's event will be even better, but we can't do it without your donation.
We'll cover the shipping or give you two tickets to our big blowout & benefit and exposure to thousands of collectors, galleries and glass appreciators.
