Online auction

WARREN

Warren Philharmonic Orchestra will have its 2016 spring fundraiser on the Internet with donated items going up for sale in the Upscale Online Attic Sale.

Proceeds will help underwrite the orchestra as it begins its second half-century of serving music lovers. The sale runs Monday to May 13.

A slide show of items available can be viewed at http://www.warrenphilharmonic.org/ under the “Tickets/Support” tab.

The sale works similar to a silent auction. Each bid can be replaced by another bidder’s higher amount, so bidders are urged to check the website often to make sure they are keeping up with the action.

Among the items up for bid are an antique brass bed, patio table and chairs for four, dish- and kitchenware, a designer wedding dress and three baby cribs.
