Lights, Camera, Auction!

Saklan’s Auction Committee is rolling out the red carpet and searching for scene-stealing auction items to make this year’s Golden Age of Hollywood–themed Starlight Gala & Auction an absolute blockbuster. We’re looking for star-quality offerings that will have guests buzzing, bidding, and ready for an encore. Here’s a peek at the kind of treasures that can help our auction steal the show:

• Vacation Getaways – Do you have or know someone with a vacation property, timeshare or other access to destination properties?
• One-of-a-Kind Experiences – Do you have a connection to something unavailable to the general public? Think Club 33, behind-the-scenes tours, throwing out the first pitch, dinner with someone famous, or an opportunity to sit in an owner’s box.
• Event Tickets – Do you have season passes for the Giants, Warriors, theatre, symphony, or live music venues?
• Adventure Experiences – Hot air ballooning, horseback riding, and cooking classes are always popular items.
• Wine – Do you belong to a winery and have a few extra bottles of your favorite Cab you would be willing to part with for a good cause?
• Gift Cards – Your unused gift cards can enhance a basket of themed goods.

Let’s make this year’s auction a true Hollywood classic: the cat’s pajamas and one for the history books!

Saklan’s Starlight Gala & Auction will be held at Lafayette Park Hotel on Saturday, March 21, 2026, from 6:00 – 11:00 p.m. This adults-only soirée is always the bee’s knees—a glamorous night of community, celebration, and a little old-school sparkle as we come together to support Saklan’s continued success. Proceeds from the evening directly benefit our students by funding enriching field experiences, inspiring guest experts, Project Based Learning, family groups, and top-notch professional development for our incredible teachers.
