About Our Auction
The Friends of the John G. McCullough Free Library are hosting this auction fundraiser in place of their (usually annual) Book & Bake Sale.
Closing bids on items in this virtual auction on September 22nd will be the opening bids at the live auction event on September 23rd from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the Old First Church carriage barn, the blue building at the foot of the Bennington Battle monument (One Monument Circle, Bennington, VT 05201). All are welcome to the live auction event-- join us for dessert and your best chance to win the items you've bid on!
Can't make it to the live auction event? We advise you bid high in the virtual auction to prevent being outbid on September 23rd!
The McCullough Library relies on funds raised by the Friends of the Library to support community events for all ages, its increasingly popular ebook and digital audiobook collection, magazine and newspaper subscriptions, craft supplies, and the Summer Reading Program for young people.
All proceeds from this online auction will directly support these important aspects of the McCullough Library's ongoing mission of service to the community.
Please note: free local delivery and free shipping are available for many of these items!
