Assemble Auction Items!
Perceptual Motion’s silent auction is one of the highlights of our Wine and Chocolate benefit. We need organized and creative people to put auction items together for display on Friday October 25 and Saturday October 26 at 1:30. We have some amazing auction items! You don't have to come both days-and if you can only put in 2 hours or so that's fine. We so appreciate the help!
You'll receive a free ticket to the event and 1 raffle ticket to the 50/50 drawing. The benefit is on Saturday, November 9, 2019 at St. Andrews Greek Church, 5649 N. Sheridan Rd., Chicago.
Proceeds support Perceptual Motion's dance programs for children and elders, Dancing in the Square festival in NorthCenter and our annual concert.
