In order to prepare for this year’s event, Nichols community members will be hosting Gift Gatherings & Shopping Parties. A gift gathering is an event that takes place before Nichols Night to help the Advancement Office secure items for the Auction.
Brand Bar will donate 10% of all purchases made in store and online at www.shopbrandbar.com (use code Donate10) back to Nichols. From 6 - 8 p.m. the store will have drinks and appetizers while you shop. Register here.
As a gift gathering attendee, you’re asked to bring an item in support of the auction, or purchase something at the shopping party to give back to the school. This could be anything that you think would be a good auction item with a value of at least $50. Past gift gathering items brought have included:
Support local: Restaurant gift cards or experiences, local distillery, wine or beer items, shopping gift cards or parties, spa gift cards, salon gift cards, jeweler gift cards or jewelry
See Us In Action Days are amazing opportunities to tour campus, see classes live, speak with teachers and students, and ask questions to a panel of teachers, coaches, current students and administrators.
