Bid for the Tollwood Lions up for sale
The Tollwood Summer Festival in Munich is hosting an auction for six unique, handcrafted wooden lion sculptures. These impressive and lifelike sculptures, standing approximately two meters high, were created by sculptor and forester Franz Jäger and partly crafted in five open workshops with audience participation [1].
The lion sculptures symbolize strength, community, and the will to make a difference, fitting perfectly with the festival's theme of "Courage and Action". Each sculpture is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, still on display at the Tollwood Summer Festival.
The auction for these extraordinary pieces is open until July 20th at 12 PM. Interested bidders can participate online by visiting www.tollwood.de/loewen. Each euro bid in the auction will support social projects in Munich.
The proceeds from this auction will be distributed among three charitable organizations: Kartoffelkombinat, Energieschule München, and 10drei e.V.
Kartoffelkombinat is an organisation that works for fair, communally organized agriculture. The Munich Energy School educates children and young people about environmental protection. The 10drei e.V. association uses the funds to bring democracy education into everyday school life.
The lion sculptures, beyond being decorative pieces, are acting as ambassadors for a better future through the auction and the funds raised. The auction raised €3,900 for these organizations, but the specific venue where the auction took place is not explicitly mentioned in the available information [1].
After the auction, the lion sculptures will find a new home, bringing the spirit of courage and action to a fortunate bidder. Bid now and make a difference!
