I'm donating to my first silent auction, a portrait with a size and subject limitation. The organizers are sending a free ticket, have told me to be sure to bring business cards and brochures etc. and are setting up a website for early viewing with any info I may want about me. The organizer told me today that she feels artists in particular give the most so they want to do everything they can to make sure the artist gets exposure from this event. Wow! I'm also on the list for the "Black and Blue Ball" for muscular dystrophy hosted by Harley Davidson. Again, they are bending over backwards to accomodate their donors. This is a formal ball (although some Harley execs come in their dress leathers) and one of their major fundraising drives. This should be fun if everything works out.
Holly, please report on your experiences with this.
