Attendees at the Harrisburg sale will have the chance to bid on, not one, but two lots to assist the Harness Horse Youth Foundation with expenses related to its educational programs.
The silent auction items include the bronze sculpture, “Playtime,” which is a large tabletop piece, and a set of three chests featuring equine carvings.
The sculpture will be on display near the Preferred Equine Marketing and Blue Chip consignment area, and the bid sheet will be located there as well. Bidding begins Monday, November 3 at 9 a.m, with bids accepted 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday.
“The bronzes in our silent auctions have always been popular,” explained HHYF Project Manager Keith Gisser. “But the chests are so intricate and unusual that we really wanted to make them available at the same time.”
Successful bidders must arrange shipping. Successful bidders must pay for the bronze in cash or cheque by 5 p.m. on Friday, November 8. No credit cards will be accepted.
For more information, contact Ellen Taylor HHYF Executive Director or other HHYF representatives who will be present during the sale. Taylor can be reached at [email protected] or 317-90-0029.
