GIVE FOR GOOD TO THIS YEAR'S KIPS BAY SHOWHOUSE

Get a chance to see stellar design in action and provide enriching experiences to Showhouse visitors as a volunteer docent at this year's Kips Bay Decorator Showhouse. As a co-chair of the Volunteer Committee, I highly recommend showing your support by volunteering as a Show House docent.

Be a part of history, making the 38th year of the showhouse the best ever!
Your fall will be even better after you support the best showhouse in the country, taking place at 106 East 71st Street, a six-story, 17 room Limestone townhouse overlooking Park Avenue, with rooms transformed by design favorites Cullman and Kravis, Mcmillen Plus, Katie Ridder and more.

Running from October 14th to November 11th, the event raises over $1 million annually for the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club, a non-profit organization that provides after-school and enrichment programs for over 13,000 youths between the ages of 6 and 18 from ten locations in the Bronx.

If you are interested, please contact Kips Bay at volunteer@kipsbay.org
The success of this historic Show House depends on its dedicated volunteers, like you.

Perhaps you have antiques, furniture, lighting, tabletop, rugs, artwork and home accessories you would like to donate to the showhouse shop. Idis Boyle at Kips Bay can help you with that at idis.boyle@kipsbay.org.
