Sunday’s fund-raiser gala includes auction items such as this stainless steel and diamond watch, as well as vacation stays in France and Cape Cod.

The Ridgefield Symphony Orchestra’s Gala Benefit Performance on Sunday, March 22, 4:30 pm, at the Visual and Performing Arts Center at WCSU, includes hors-d’oeuvres, a complimentary glass of bubbly and historical memorabilia, as well as unique auction items that organizers say “will interest any true connoisseur of the finer things in life.”

Heading the list of these auction items in a week-long getaway in the South of France. Located outside of the village of Seillans, in the Var Department, a village designated “L’un des plus beaux villages de France,” the house is located on one acre with Southern views.  It has three bedrooms, a private pool and incredible Provençal charm throughout.  The village is within easy driving distance of many tourist destinations — Cannes and its beaches are a half hour away; Nice, with its great shops and museums, is one hour to the east; and St. Tropez and Aix-en-Provence are easy day trips, a 1.5 hour drive away. 

Looking for a vacation a bit closer to home? An oceanside condo stay is being auctioned off in Surfside Resort in Falmouth, Mass., Aug. 21-28, 2015.  The condo has one bedroom and two baths, a kitchenette, and a private deck.  

Another item is a stainless steel, Swiss-made ladies wristwatch from Leonard. The watch is 28 mm with 0.55 carats of diamonds on the bezel. 

The performance includes works by Mozart, Copland and Johann Strauss in a venue recently among the top 10 performing arts centers nationwide, according to an RSO spokesperson.
