Oh, alright, I'm too excited about this: I'll tell you about one more tantalizing item up for auction at PARK4JAPAN Presented by The Gerry Thomas Gallery.

Our friend and frequent collaborator Caitlin Power is more than ultra talented- she is one of the nicest Calgary girls we know. Not only is she giving our guests an exclusive view of her A/W 2011 Collection, but she also donated a design straight from one her killer look books (seriously, check her collections out) for you to bid on. Wanna see?

Caitlin's tailored jackets are the perfect combination of structure, fascinating detail and an intoxicating come hither of feminine wiles, so it's no wonder she's making her mark on the city and beyond. Her A/W 2011 collection will surely entice, but getting to own a truly quality piece by this designer who I know will be bigger than big AND contribute to a good cause? That's... power-ful (I had to).

Even more excited to place some bids? I am. Truth: it's going to be hard not to just try to outbid everyone on everything myself.

If you still haven't gotten your tickets for tomorrow, they're still available online (http://www.tickettrunk.com/event/buy/850until 12pm on April 7th. See you at the Gerry Thomas Gallery tomorrow!

PARK4JAPAN Presented by The Gerry Thomas Gallery

Disaster and tragedy strike without any notice. When the earthquake and tsunami hit Japan, the world could only watch time stop as we felt the pain of the thousands of people affected from afar... and then it was time to take action.

Our mandate as PARK is to build culture in our city, and the best culture building often comes through the beats of that big old heart muscle of our city. Thankfully, in no time, PARK's awesome contacts and collective of creatives, artists, designers and generally, people who throw their heart into anything they do, are stepping up to put together an event with our good friends at the Gerry Thomas Gallery. It's time to do something local to help this global tragedy.
