Hi everyone, As the MCN conference draws nearer, so does our Silent Auction. All 2007 Silent Auction proceeds will fund conference scholarships for MCN 2008.
If you haven't already, please dream up your donations and stash them away to take to Chicago, where they'll be gratefully accepted in person. Donations may be dropped off at the conference desk when you register. Any items new or old, useful or happily useless, that may attract bids and be carried home on airplanes are encouraged. Exhibition catalogs, museum bags, clothing, and other souvenirs are always popular. Donations need not be tangible things--some popular lots have offered half-price registrations for other professional events, or various free services. Auction volunteers also are needed. If you'd like to help or want to know more, please email me off-list at <rlancefield [at] wesleyan.edu>. <http://www.mcn.edu/conferences/index.asp?subkey=1693> has more news about this and a wide range of MCN 2007 events. See you in Chicago!
