Bigger! Better! A Bonanza! An event hosted by the Knick Knack Nook and the Bowen Island Library

Two years ago the Knick Knack Nook and the Snug Cove House Society ran a fabulous fund raising event, the proceeds of which went to Snug Cove House.

Two years ago the Knick Knack Nook and the Snug Cove House Society ran a fabulous fund raising event, the proceeds of which went to Snug Cove House. 
On Saturday, October 18 the Nook in collaboration with the Bowen Island Library will raise funds for the Annie Laurie Wood extension. The venue for this extravaganza is the Legion Hall, the time 7 p.m.
For those of you who were unfortunate enough to miss it, the 2012 event was hugely successful, raising nearly $12,000. This year over 200 carefully selected items culled from the Nook’s vast donations collection will be on display and subsequently auctioned off throughout the evening.  Finger food, a bar, and live music will help to loosen your pockets and make for a lively, memorable occasion.
Beginning October 1, a selection of auction items will go on-line (www.kknauction.ca) for advanced bidding. With the active support of The Undercurrent we will be telling the behind-the-scenes stories of how they came to be chosen.
