To see her work is to catch the spirit. Her natural, unbridled energy, a commanding yet elegant stage presence, combined
with precision techniques has aided in raising over 200 million dollars for deserving organizations. She has orchestrated and conducted over 2000 auctions over the past 19 years. In 2003, she was recognized as one of the Leading National Fundraising Auctioneers by the National Auctioneer Association. Recently, Karen was selected by Minnesota Monthly as a 2011 “Woman of Influence.”
Energy fills the tent as Patrons and guests of the Philbrook Wine Experience bid and barter for their favorite items during the biennial auction. Whether your approach yields leaps and outbursts or you prefer to stoically focus, the auction brings as much to Philbrook wine weekend as the food and the wine. This year’s auction promises to bring the energy to a new level with, enticing opportunities including trips to Italy, the Kentucky Derby, and Scotland; private dinners from Flemings, Brasserie, and Juniper; as well as special wine lots unattainable elsewhere. With Celebrity Auctioneer, Karen Sorbo, at the helm, Philbrook Wine Experience weekend will entertain and energize. Get ready to raise your paddle!
