The Fifth Annual Spun Sample Extravaganza
A SILENT AUCTION to benefit We the People Opportunity Farm
Saturday, November 23, 2024, 6-8pm
November at Spun means a sample sale, but this year we're mixing things up a bit by putting on a Silent Auction!
We’re offering for sale a Spun-crafted collection of over four dozen hand-knit and -crocheted pieces, including sweaters, shawls, hats, cowls, baby items, and more, knit from some of our favorite yarns and donated by Spun staff members. All the money raised by the auction will go directly to support We the People Opportunity Farm, Melvin Parson's Ypsilanti-based initiative to create a sustainable farming system that supports a workforce of formerly incarcerated men and women.
The auction will run from 6(ish) to 8(ish)* on Saturday, November 23. Pick up your entry ticket here, and we'll have a bidder number ready for you on Saturday night. The rest is up to you!
Here's what you'll enjoy:
- The opportunity to bid on and bring home a hand-crafted piece from our collection of samples
- Yummy snacks from the Produce Station
- A glass of wine poured by our friends and neighbors at Everyday Wines**
A bonus evening drop-in, perhaps to facilitate progress on your holiday crafting, while you hang out and wait to see if you won anything! - You'll be entered into a drawing to win a $100 Spun gift certificate!
YOU CAN PICK UP YOUR AUCTION ENTRY HERE!
