Gala Will Include Roast of WBIR’s Biven
The American Advertising Federation of Knoxville (AAF-Knoxville) is hosting a media auction on April 9 as a fundraiser and an opportunity for small business and non-profits to snag great deals on television, radio, outdoor, and print media.
The event will raise money for AAF-Knoxville and Saving Little Hearts, a foundation dedicated to helping children with congenital heart defects. It will be held on the patio of the Crown and Goose gastropub in The Old City, beginning at 6:30 pm.
A bonus to the evening is a celebrity roast of WBIR’s Russell Biven.
“We thought this would be a good time to create an event that could benefit a number of organizations throughout East Tennessee,” said David Jacobs, AAF-Knoxville President. “The media auction can help people expand their promotion at reduced costs. And we’re honored to be associated with Saving Little Hearts and look forward to being able to contribute to their remarkable efforts.’
Jacobs noted that the event will also be a chance for networking with some of the most creative minds in East Tennessee, and that in addition to media, several businesses and individuals are expected to donate weekend trips, dining packages, and other items to be auctioned.
“If you are familiar with our group, you know people have a good time at our events,” he said.
Jacobs said people can learn more by visiting a website created for the event: www.aafmediaauction.com.
