Rialzo IV is just around the corner
and this year you not only get to
preview many of the items that will go
to a lucky bidder, but you’ll also get to
bid online for various items as well.
Flip through these pages for a taste
of the one-of-a-kind items Rialzo has
become known for, and work up an
appetite for donating to Meridian’s
incredible programs.
Here’s how the Rialzo auction will
work this year. First, go to Meridian’s
website, www.meridianhs.org, and
click on the Rialzo AUCTION banner.
You’ll be able to preview select items.
Each item will be designated as:
~ Live: Available only at Rialzo.
~ Online: Bidding available before
Rialzo at www.meridianhs.org
~ Silent: Previewed and available the
night of Rialzo.
For the online items, a bidding
period will be listed, and you’ll be
notified when you are outbid, or when
you’ve won!
