The 21st Annual Wine and Spirits Auction

The Junior Committee of the Women's Guild of the New Orleans Opera Association strongly suggests that you save this date!

Thursday, October 29, 2009

Don't miss THE most exciting, spectacularly fun, Pre-Halloween event in New Orleans!

In partnership with the Inn on Bourbon, our event will be held within the footprint of the storied Old French Opera House at 541 Bourbon Street.

Enjoy live entertainment, dancing, food, drink and the main event: the SPIRITED live auction staring auctioneers Laura Buchtel and Rob Nelson of WWL-TV's Morning News.

Auction items include wine, spirits, and a very rare, beautifully framed work of art all courtesy of private donors, local and nationally known wineries, vineyards, distilleries, and The Inn On Bourbon.

Two new Auction items:

  • Prytania Theater – 2 Season Passes valued at $700
  • Mina Lanzas, Berta’s and Mina’s Antiquities Gallery – a new piece based on La Traviata valued at $2000

Transform yourself into a favorite opera denizen, diva, or paramour to participate in our Death By Opera contest as COSTUMING is highly encouraged...but not at all required.

Ample seating will be available.

6:30 PM Patron Party and Auction events ~ $75
7:30 PM Auction events ~ $50
