Purses...with Purpose?

Here at It’s Criminal! Book & Wine Bar, we love the arts! Music, art, theatre – we love it all. That’s why we’re thrilled to be a sponsor of the Eau Claire Children’s Theatre’s 9^th annual Purses with Purpose fundraiser. This is a fun, ladies-night out event with delicious food, specialty drinks, and a silent auction filled with…you guessed it…purses! Join us on Thursday, April 19, at 5:30 p.m., at Wild Ridge Golf Course! Tickets are $40 per person and tables of 8 are available for $320. You must reserve your tickets by Friday, April 13, to be part of this amazing event for a great cause.

We were treated to a sneak preview of some of the purses that have been donated to the auction. A recurring theme this year is entertainment. There are purses filled with tickets to The Doobie Brothers & Steely Dan concert on June 15 at the Xcel Energy Center and another with tickets to Rod Stewart & Cyndi Lauper on August 15 at the Xcel. There are also purses with tickets to the Frankie Ballard, Chris Lane, Cheap Trick, and Martina McBride concerts at this summer’s Northern Wisconsin State Fair. But there are many other purses filled with wine, massage and restaurant certificates, home décor, and more. All of these purses will be up for bid in the silent auction at the event.

We’re honored to be part of this event with our sponsorship and our donation of purses to the auction. We believe in this organization and this event so much, we want you to experience it too! Visit our Facebook page here and describe your favorite purse in 10 words or less. (Mine is a royal blue Coach messenger bag!) You could win two tickets to Purses with Purpose! We’ll choose one winner by random drawing on Tuesday, April 10, 2018.
