Bags and Bottles to benefit Gilda’s Club cancer effort

Those who like purses, handbags, and wine tastings can take in the 3rd annual “Bags & Bottles” from 4-7 p.m. Sunday, March 15 at the Westin Hotel in Downtown Seattle.

Each woman attending the fundraiser is asked to bring a new or almost new purse or hand bag for the silent auction portion of the event. Local boutiques will be there with their most current bag designs and accessories on display. Also, more than 25 Northwest wineries will be on hand.

The event is a fundraiser for Gilda’s Club of Seattle, a meeting place for men, women and children living with cancer. Tickets are $35, and can be purchased at www.gildasclubseattle.org.
