A Tartan Christmas 2: The Video

December 17th, 2008 by Kaili Boyd

Okay, before I show this video I want you to know that this Christmas fair is a must for New Yorkers.The First Presbyterian Church of New York is on 5th Avenue between 11th and 12th Streets and has their Christmas Fair, known as a Tartan Christmas, the first weekend in December every year. The video only hightlights one person in the Antitques room where the silent auction is held but they are practically giving stuff away in there.

Lorraine, Smith, the woman in my video who bid on the kimono, grossly underbid…I as a poor college student outbid her and I didn’t win. In addition All of the money they collect goes to charity. With most charities only 10% of the money goes to charity, the rest goes to the administrative costs for running the charity. With that said, enjoy the bagpiper!

Happy Christmas!
