A Non Profit Fundraiser Benefiting Arts Education in Youth Grades K-12
LOS ANGELES–(EMWNews)–On Thursday, September 25, 2008, the best of Tinseltown will gather at
Hotel Bel-Air for the first annual blingthing.org Celebrity Jewelry
Auction to raise money for scholarships to youths pursuing an education
in the arts. Auction attendees will have the exclusive opportunity to
bid on a selection of jewelry donated by celebrities from their own
personal collections, while guests to the VIP after party will mingle
with the stars.
blingthing.org is an organization founded on the premise that all
children deserve an education in the Arts. In a scholastic culture quick
to cut Fine Arts curricula in the face of budget shortfalls, the
organization strives to create a world in which no child is prevented
from pursuing their dreams in the Arts due to unaffordable tuition.
“The response we’ve
had to this event has been enormous and we are so grateful, but even
more celebrity participation is needed. Proceeds of the event will fund
countless scholarships across the nation for children who want an
education in the Arts but can’t afford the
opportunity,” said Mike Sheehan, President of
blingthing.org.
Celebrity invitees include Jennifer Aniston, Victoria Beckham, Jim
Carrey, Tom Cruise, Celine Dion, Harrison Ford, Katie Holmes, Angelina
Jolie, Madonna, Steve Martin, Paul McCartney, Gwyneth Paltrow, Sarah
Jessica Parker, Michelle Pfeiffer, Jada Pinkett-Smith, Will Smith,
Britney Spears, Steven Spielberg, Barbara Walters, Denzel Washington,
Oprah Winfrey and many others.
Tickets to the Auction and Reception are $250 per person. To be included
in the VIP Celebrity After Party a $1,000 minimum ticket purchase is
required. Advance reservations are necessary. Visit www.blingthing.org
for more information and to purchase tickets.

91 rooms and suites are decorated with a distinct individual
