  • fun experiences (behind the scenes, COSI, Franklin Park Conservatory, CAPA)
  • 7 simply gorgeous handmade quilts of various sizes

  • things for kids
Several packages were added during the week. To view new items, click on the "All Items" dropdown and select "Newly added items"

Tips for using this Silent Auction platform:

  3. Items are listed in alphabetical order, but there are lots of ways to locate specific items. Click on the "All Items" dropdown to filter by category or use the Search function
  4. Scroll down to see a complete description of the item. Several have multiple photos too.
  5. If you want to watch an item, click on the Heart below the Bid box and then you can get a list of just those items you are watching by clicking on the Heart in the top bar
  6. You can get a list of those items you bid on by clicking on the Star in the top bar
