Diana Wild and Jane Lindsey are working together to obtain amazing items for this exciting event, which is taking place at the NEHGS Seminar. They'd love to hear from you as soon as possible, so contact them today.
Here are some suggestions:
Decorative – nice glass or crystal pieces, sculptures, a set of dishes, a set of popular books, handmade items such as quilts or afghans. (One member donated a leather briefcase for a past NEHGS event.)
Special Opportunities - a cruise on the Bay, a tour of something not readily available to the public, or tickets to a special event. A behind-the-scenes tour of BART was a well-received item at one of our events.
