What Will Be Available in PETA’s Virtual Auction?
Make Some Music With a Martin & Co. Acoustic Electric Guitar
Feel like a rock star with this Martin DRSGT acoustic electric guitar. It’s a left-handed, 14-fret Dreadnought Road Series guitar with a polished gloss Sitka spruce top. No need to fret about whether animal-derived materials are hiding in the inlays, strings, or nuts, as this guitar is 100% vegan. It’s time to outbid and rock out!
The Asha Sneaker Will Sweep You off Your Feet
Two pairs of the Asha sneaker by O2Monde in size EU 37/U.S. 6 will be up for grabs at the silent auction to help kick off the event. The design of the Asha sneaker was inspired by Asha de Vos, a marine biologist and defender of whales, and her bold, action-oriented approach to inspiring young advocates to step up and save animals. The sneaker’s vegan upper and recycled natural rubber sole will keep you stylish and comfortable, whether you’re standing at a PETA protest or kicking up your feet to watch our online seminar.
Get Cooking With a Virtual Vegan Cooking Class
A virtual cooking class with star chef Mike Aurigemma of the Future Food Institute is one of our most mouthwatering auction items. Chef Aurigemma, a protégé of celebrity vegan chef Matthew Kenney, is a force to be reckoned with in the kitchen. The Future Food Institute class can host up to 12 people, so it would be perfect for a group of friends and family. Grab an apron and start bidding on this exciting opportunity to wow your guests at your next dinner.

LBLC the Label is a 100% cruelty-free brand.

Have a Ball Without Harming Animals
