Dear All,
ICTP has produced very
nice and unique shopping bags out of our 10-meter-long 50th
Anniversary banner. They
were made at Lister
Sartoria Sociale here in Trieste. They managed to produce
24 shopping bags plus 35 smaller bags. From 4 to 6 May, ICTP
staff and friends will have the opportunity to acquire these
through a silent auction and raffle, the proceeds of which
will go to the Fund for Hunger.
Silent Auction:
The large bags will be
on display in the showcases at the entrance of the ICTP Shop (behind
InfoPoint); each bag will have a number. Bidding sheets for each
bag will be placed near the display case, where bidders will
be able to write their names, contact details and bid
amounts. Bidders can
always raise their bid if desired.
Raffle:
The smaller bags will be
raffled at 5 euros a ticket; these tickets can be purchased
at Infopoint from 4 to 6 May.
Announcement of winners:
The winning bidders of
the Silent Auction as well as the drawing of the raffle
tickets will be announced on Monday 9 May at 12:30 in the LB
cafeteria, after which the winners of the large bags can
make their payments and collect their items, while the
winning tickets will be drawn for the smaller bags. Winners
who cannot be present on Monday can pick up their prizes at
InfoPoint.
