And the excitement continues!

I've been hearing about the annual Auction for CENTERSTAGE since coming to the theater in September (and, as a local, have often followed the exciting list of items being auctioned each year for much longer). But that really doesn't prepare you for the great excitement--and incredible deals-- of the actual event. I won my first bid, getting a fabulous package of tickets to the opening night of the Maryland Film Festival and a poster signed by John Waters, but alas I was out bid on a stunning etching by artist Ruth Channing.

The bidding wars have already started, including a great deal on a catering package for an engagement party.

Here's a first-hand look inside the action, including Managing Director Debbie Chinn with Sydney Wilner our auction coordinator, and guest auctioneer Chris Noya from Stevenson University (the auction sponsor); floor leader Adam Rubin supervises a bidding war at the end of hour.
