There's no doubt that New York City has been hit hard during the COVID-19 pandemic, and to help the city during this difficult time, the New York City-based film company A24 is stepping up and auctioning off props from some of their most iconic films, with proceeds going to four charities providing aid to New Yorkers affected by COVID-19.
Items being auctioned off include the stitched pillows from Hereditary; the flower dress, bear headdress, and finishing mallet from Midsommar; and the mermaid carving and lantern from The Lighthouse.
The A24 auctions will take place at different times throughout the coming weeks, with the first one kicking off today. You can view the aforementioned items from the auctions below, and to learn more, visit:
