The Benefit Shop of Bedford Hills Auction Catalog is Online

The inaugural auction is Sept. 21—and all the profits go to charity.

The Benefit Shop of Bedford Hills, which has become the first stop for local designers and design buffs searching for antiques and collectibles, is about to offer a brand new shopping experience. With the inaugural auction planned for Sunday, September 21st, savvy shoppers can bid from a greatly-expanded inventory of over 500 lots--whether in person, online or by phone.

From the auction site (an 8,000 sq ft warehouse at 27 Radio Circle, Mt. Kisco, NY) or online at www.thebenefitshop.org, bidding will be easy and accessible. Auction-goers will find items at all price points—from low to lofty—and everyone is invited to join in the fun. Included are period antique and contemporary furniture, original artwork, carpets, lighting, ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​decorative objects as well as a large selection of sterling silver flatware and serving pieces and antique jewelry.

All are invited to preview the items September 18 and 19 from 10am to 5pm and September 20 from 12pm to 6pm. You may also arrive early and preview items the morning of the sale, September 21, from 9am to 11:30am.

Amazing as the prospect of an awesome auction in Westchester is, perhaps even more extraordinary is that, as a nonprofit, The Benefit Shop distributes all profits to worthy local charities. The largest beneficiaries to date have been Northern Westchester Hospital and the Mt. Kisco Boys and Girls Club. Funds have also been given to over twenty others including the Westmoreland Sanctuary, the SPCA/Humane Society and the Katonah Community Center.
