SING WITH ARETHA, DINE WITH BELAFONTE: Rare experiences up for bid to benefit Kennedy Center for Human Rights.
*An auction scheduled for later this month to benefit the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Human Rights offers folks a number of once-in-a-lifetime opportunities, including a chance to sing with Aretha Franklin, or to get some musical advice from mogul Clive Davis.
Also up for bid: a dinner with James Earl Jones, Ruby Dee and Harry Belafonte; a signed guitar from Carlos Santana; and an ostrich egg signed by South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu. The minimum bid for that item is $650.
The Web-based company organizing the auction, Charitybuzz.com, is not charging any premiums on the auction prices. The auction runs until January, with individual lots closing at different dates in December.
Proceeds will fund the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Human Rights' efforts both domestically and globally.
Some of the other lots include a chance to meet The Who's Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey (and take away a signed guitar), private pottery lessons from actress Marcia Gay Harding, a nonspeaking part in an upcoming Farrelly brothers movie, seeing Andrea Bocelli perform in Tuscany, and a personal tour of a floor of the NBC network at Rockefeller Plaza, led by Luke Russert, son of the late "Meet the Press" host Tim Russert.
