The Holiday House
What is it?
A designer show house with holiday-themed rooms (a Thanksgiving dining room, a New Year’s Eve library, etc.). 2 E 63rd St between Fifth and Madison Aves (212-751-7186, holidayhouseny.com)
What do you want from me?
Show house docents volunteer in three-hour shifts, answering visitor questions and making sure no one steals anything. Shifts are available Tuesday through Sunday through December 7.
Who does it help?
The Greater New York City Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure (komennyc.org)
What's in it for me?
Volunteers get free admission (tix cost $30), plus a chance to chin-wag with some of the house’s featured designers. And did we mention this was Carrie’s Fifth Avenue penthouse in the Sex and the City movie?
I'm sold. Let's do this shit.
E-mail Cynthia Ramirez at cramirez@komennyc.org to arrange a shift.
