The Silent Auction kicks off this year’s fundraising drive, offering items ranging from $20-$3,000 that will be on display for bidding as part of the November and December Gallery Walks. On November 4th and December 2nd , all items will be available for bidding in The Hooker Dunham Theater Lobby, 139 Main Street downtown Brattleboro. The auction ends at 8:30pm on December 2nd, and that evening the theater will host free dance performances from the Junior and Senior companies of the Brattleboro School of Dance. The incredible collection of items includes a digital art piece by Michel Moyes, an original oil painting by Jim Mc Grath, a “ski and stay” family package for four from The Hermitage Club and Spa, and an exquisite Herkimer diamond and gold necklace from Renaissance Fine Jewelry.
