The worlds of art, design and fashion  converged at previous years' Annual “Open Your Heart” Auction.

IT’S THE BEST PARTY AND CHARITY AUCTION IN THE CITY!!!
THE BAILEY HOUSE AUCTION AND PARTY…
www.baileyhouse.org/auction

Always wanted a James Rosenquist.. an Andre Serrano, a Claes Oldenburg? 

Or what about a William Wegman, an Ellen Von Unwerth, a Herb Ritts, a Sheila Metzner or a Robert Mapplethorpe?

Of course, that's only a partial list… bid on a John Baldassari, a Mark Beard, a James Pierson, a David Levinthal, a Terry Richardson…. Or so many others!

Art's not your thing?  How about lunch with Anderson Cooper?  Barbara Walters?  Or Project Runway Guru Tim Gunn…and a personal wardrobe consultation with him. Perhaps you'll bid on a lunch and consultation with Jonathan Adler and his partner, Simon Doonan…

Maybe you covet the Signed table settings hand picked by some of NYC's most famous chefs, including Charlie Palmer and Nobu Matsuhisa, courtesy of the President of “the cult restaurant supplier,” Saori Kawano and Korin Japanese Trading Corp.

If you've always wanted to see your name in lights… or more than just your name… you can bid on your photo up on the Reuters sign in Times Square. Or how about tix to the finale of Dancing with the stars?

Come for the auction.. silent and live!!..., enjoy the food… provided graciously by the Charlie Palmer Group, Buddakan, Pulse, Manhattan Chili Company, Murray's Chicken and others… stay for the party and dancing.   It's one of the best ways to give to one of New York's oldest AIDS-related charities.

If you haven't seen the posters and telephone kiosk signs all over Manhattan, then you're just not seeing RED... The Bailey House Auction and Party, hosted by Tim Gunn and Jonathan Adler, IS the hottest ticket in town
