| | |  J.K. Rowling Donates Painted Egg for Charity
J.K. Rowling has donated a hand painted ceramic egg to be auctioned off, with proceeds going to benefit the Multiple Sclerosis Society Scotland, a charity for which she recently held a Masquerade Ball. Quote:
The Harry Potter author is among a host of celebrities, including Scots actor Ewan McGregor and painter Elizabeth Blackadder, who have painted their own designs on eggs for a charity auction.
Quote:
It is hoped the event will raise between £5000 and £10,000 for the society. At least 150 guests are expected to attend.
Quote:
Admission is £50 per person, including a champagne reception, three-course meal, whisky tasting and live entertainment from The Jam House band.

Ooo, that's a very interesting and unique idea that is bound to raise quite a bit of money.

yeah but did she paint it herself? If she didn't, then it didn't really come from the heart.
