Many dancers in the company (Ashley Bouder in particular) have worked very hard at gathering numerous items to auction off to benefit GMHC through AIDS Walk New York. The New York City Ballet team did the walk which took place on May 18th, organized by dancers and some wonderful NYCB volunteers. They are still raising money - up until June 10th. (Check out Philip’s photos from the walk at Oberon’s Grove).

View the EBAY auctions to see if there is anything you like. There are signed shoes, tote bags, programs… and 100% of the final auction price will be donated.

This first round of auctions will end around noon tomorrow - 5/27.

We will be listing a few more 3-day auction items tomorrow including 2 signed posters and four prints by Kyle Froman.

[…] signed by the dancer. For second year in a row, Kristin Sloan of NYCBallet has collected signed merchandise from the NYCBallet to Auction on Ebay for the Aids walk 2008.  She launched the auction from her behind the scenes blog, thewinger.com.  Check out the Photos, they are really beautiful, I almost think they should sell prints of the the dance shoes that Sloan took.  Also take a look on thewinger, they have a section that demystifies the pointe shoe.
